Shows and Other Entertainment
The Ruby Princess offers a little extra entertainment, as well as an on-board arcade, two movie theaters, and a casino.
Out on the decks, they hold “Movies Under the Stars” where movies newly out on DVD are shown. You can catch the same movie listings at the indoor Princess Theater as well. Movies shown at these locations are available in your cabin the following day.
The video arcade on the Ruby Princess is probably the one area that wasn’t done to excess, with only a few games and a change machine.
Those who need to check up on e-mail or simply need to settle a bet via Wikipedia can do so at the Internet Center. Those guests staying in full suites get complimentary web access at the Internet Café as part of their reservation.




















































Sure, you can’t launch golfballs into the ocean, but you can at least launch pretend golf balls while on the ocean. The Ruby Princess has a sixteen hole miniature golf course. There is also a basketball court, as well as an walking area. Circling the track 16 times equals a mile.




































































Professional photographers walk about the ship taking pictures of you and your party. Right behind the Crown Grille on deck 7 is a kiosk where you can buy these photos. All of the pictures are displayed along the walls. The walls fold up when this shop is closed and thus the photos are hidden. You can also buy disposable cameras, memory cards, and batteries here. They have pretty much everything you need for your camera.




















On deck 5, the Plaza deck, there is an extensive gallery of fine art for enjoyment and purchase. There are auctions almost every day of the cruise.


























For those on business, or for whom work can never be too far away, the Ruby Princess does feature a well-appointed conference room.
