    Hmmmm...now that will take some thought! Some are very good, when they work properly, but not so good when you can't access the info you are looking for.

    I'm hoping we get LOTS of votes in this one!

    Maybe some folks will even check out some of the various sites before casting their vote, and discover something new ... that would really make it fun!

    Yes it would!

    Some sites have a lot of pre-cruise info once you have a reservation, but a newbie wouldn't be able to access those pages unless they book a cruise.

    Maybe some of our cruisers here might just find their next cruise while checking out cruise line sites!

    I voted for Princess. Their site does offer a lot of good info and navigation is not difficult.

    RCI and Celebrity have good sites, too, but RCI has been having a systems glitch for a number of months on their past cruiser pages (Crown & Anchor). Not a happy camper about that.

    Carnival is OK, but it's hard to search for specific answers and the info avaiable is not broad enough in scope.

    DEFINITELY Regent!

    OK, maybe I am a little biased.

    But really, you can get right in there and ZAP look at any cabin or ship info and ZAP get any price on anything instantly. One click for itineraries and then click for very detailed info on each port. It well laid out and easy and fast to use.

    On many of the other websites they bury all the details deep within the site, or make you "register" by giving your email address before they will give you any answers. This is just a way to get you on a mailing list and it drives me bonkers. Even worse are the sites that ask you for all that info and then tell you a specialist will contact you with pricing. No thanks...I want to know now!

    I agree about the having to register first. It really is a put-off!

    I can't recall which, but one ofo the cruise lines has a really neat reature on their website.
    It allows you to pull up a map with the current location of any of their ships. Ii really liked that when I found it.
    Does anyone remember which one it is?

    I don't recall a cruise line web site, but I have seen other independant sites that will show you where a ship is in real time along with a Google Earth overview. I would have to serch for it--can't remember the link at the moment.

    Oh goodness. I don't know. Let me go to all of them first before I vote. Sure I'm a little biased about Princess but I want to give everyone a fair chance. Luckly I have this weekend to look them all over.
