Thread: More options on favorite cruise lines.

PRINCESS! Best All Round!

Maybe, it's because we've sailed on Princess most ... but there is a total COMFORT LEVEL for us on Princess. Our last cruise was on Sea Princess. My DH and I often would look at each other and say, "Gosh, we've missed Princess!"

This in no way means we don't enjoy other cruise lines. Our next two cruises are on RCCL and HAL ... and we love the food and pax base on Celebrity! Costa is also a favorite .... etc. etc. etc. There's something good and special about each!

I love HAL because of the classic art on the ships and wonderfully friendly crew and wonderful beds and bedding!
I have to admit though, that we also very much enjoy Celebrity and love the Millie class ships and those incredible aft cabins!!

I really don;t have a "favorite" cruiseline. I book for price and itinerary. the food on Celebrity is superb. But if I just want to kick back and relax, I go with Norwegian. But only the newer ships as they were designed especially for freestyle cruising.
I have been on Celebrity more than any other line.

My vote was for Rccl... that was our first cruise..
And it took my mom and I about 4 years to talk Dh into taking a cruise.. Well when he did.. He was hooked.. He loved the service and everything that Rccl had to offer... Aug 17 th.. We'll be doing our cruise to Alaska, and when we get off the ship.. We'll be in the Diamond memebers club.. Guess that would say it all..
We have never sailed any other cruise lines..
Why: you ask ..?? Just love what we get for our buck with Rccl... but we are going to Sail on X ( Celebrity ) this Oct 2007, because it is sailing out of our home port and it is a short 4 nt'r.. for my birthday cruise.
Oh did I mention, we get the same perks with X, as Rccl..
Ok Later all..

This is multiple choice so if you find you can't just choose one then go ahead and tell us why.

I chose Princess because so far, they have given us the best service compared to Carnival and RCI. But we've not sailed all the lines yet, so this is a preliminary favorite.

Princess showed us that there is a "little" class in cruising.

Food, ok - it's all the same on the cruiselines, IMHO.

For the last few years we have stayed with HAL.

We just love the friendliness of the crew. And it amazes us that as we move from one ship to another, we encounter so many loyal HAL crew that we have met over the years. And they never seem to forget a person's name!!!

HAL's pricing has been reasonable the last number of years compared to some other cruise lines - JMO.

I did notice that HAL's pricing was pretty good on some cruises I was looking at. When we did Alaska it was a great deal for us. I was very happy with them.

I too am a HAL Fan

Before we got hooked on HAL our first cruise was with RCCL and with checking cruises we did keep checking prices but it seemed that what ever ones we picked HAL just had a better price for what we were looking for. Now that we have so many HAL cruises under our belt I will admit I do not compare anymore. We know what we will get when we cruise with HAL and love their product

Princess

They have had the best food, service and comfy beds while on a cruise for me.

Practice scrunching yourself up into a ball and I'll sneak you on in my luggage!
