I think my favourite cruise was my first ever and on Mercury. We had such great dinner tablemates and I thought the ship was beautiful having been used to travelling across the English Channel on a P & O ferry. Why I thought it would be so similar I don't know  I think the first one if you enjoy it always has a special place. Favourite itinerary has to be Transatlantic. I love getting on the ship in Europe, having 25 hour days and arriving where the cars a much bigger  Seems like a real "journey".

John, that is my main concern about Equinox and I'll be interested to see what I feel. Funny how we change along with the "progress". I used to think of Zenith, Horizon, Mercury et al as the smaller ones and Constellation as one of their big ships and now it too is small in comparison to others. I remember her sitting next to QM2 in Fort Lauderdale and she was dwarfed
