Royal Caribbean is great... where are you looking to go?

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

My parents have been on several.

They said Norweigan was OK... nice, but they didn't go on it again.

They said they loved Princess - very quality and have been on it twice. However, it can sometimes be an older crowd on that ship depending where you go. It is gorgeous though.

Royal Carribbean they said was very luxury and had the most normal crowd in terms of age-groups. They had young married couples, families, adults, and some seniors. They said the food was really good.

They have not been on Celebrity yet but I have heard fantastic things about them!! When I take my first cruise sometime in the future I want to do them!

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

We were recently on Royal Caribbean and had a great time! I would definitely recommend them.

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

I have been on 3:
The Big Red Boat (not running anymore with this name)
RCCL
NCL

I would pick RCCL over all of them everytime. NCL was nice but it didn't fulfill all my needs (which is basically food all the time-lol!!).

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

Thanks everyone....We are looking the the Celebrity Summit.....

Once again thanks everyone for your input.

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

We've been on Celebrity 5 times and would recommend it everytime. We're actually looking into their Galapagos trip on their small yacht for 2010 or 2011.

This year we're going on Royal Caribbean... first time on Royal and even though it's the sister company to Celebrity I'm expecting a little less from it.

My family only goes on Royal Caribbean! It's the best!

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

I went on Royal Caribbean for my honeymoon and I had a great time until I got hurt the last night of my trip. I slipped on a wet surface and even though it was their fault, they would not let me see a doctor until I paid them $330. I had trip insurance and ONE of these days I plan on getting my money back but it completely turned me off. I spent $7k on our freaking honeymoon and even though my foot was turning more and more purple by the second I was treated like a sale and not a person in need of medical attention. Unfortunately I think most cruise lines would have the same policies so in short the cruise itself was great, just get the trip insurance!

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

I have been on Celebrity 13 or 14 times. I love them!!! They are a great line.

We have also gone on Princess and have thoroughly enjoyed our trips. (we have taken 2 cruises with them).

I have also been on NCL but not for a LONG time. While I enjoyed it - I thought the food and service was better on Princess and Celebrity.

I have not been on yet but family and friends have sailed on RCCL and loved their cruises. I would definitely give them a try.

I loved Royal Caribbean!!! We were on Voyager of the Seas

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

I've been on Royal, Carnival & NCL multiple times each - by far NCL is my favorite

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

dont really like NCL personally... I have been on the disney cruise with out children and have to say it is the best... best food best bars, best pool and everything is new and spotless

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

We loved NCL (Norwegian), we have sailed on the Pearl and the Spirit. The ships are modern, the crowd was very diverse in age, the food and shows were great. We love the freestyle dining, we aren't into being sat with people and told when you have to eat.

Where are you looking to go and with who, though? Because I know we are looking to cruise with a different line after our son is born while he is still young, because NCL doesn't have a nursery for little ones.

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

Ive been on 7 cruises- used Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Carnival. Out of all I lovedddd Royal Caribbean!!! They were amazing. Carnival had an amazing 7 day iteniary but the boat was not good at all... norwegian was nice because they have something called freestyle cruising which is that you can dress and sit anywhere you want for dinner- not your traditional sit down on your table thing. We really liked that as we felt really weird sitting down with strangers (usually families too) at the tables. DH and I always skipped the fancy dinner and wet to the buffts anyway in RC.

hope that helps! Let me know if you need any more info !

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

Disney Cruise Line is the BEST. I went on my honeymoon and there were NO kids around ever. They had the best food and service.

Royal Caribbean is my second. I love this cruise line. Pefect for our age group.

Princess is 3rd. Good food, good entertainment, beautiful ship. An older crowd.

Carnival is my 4rd. I'm not really a fan of it. My first cruise on carnival was horrible. We're going on another one with a bunch of friends in January. I'm hoping this one is better.

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

Costa.....i have been on 1 and my family has been on 2 and loved it!

I will be going on 1 for our 1 year anniversary so i will post a review

Re: Reccommend a cruise line you have been on.

Royal Caribbean is by far my favorite! SO much to do, beautiful ship (navigator of the seas), amazing food, etc.

Carnival is good too, been a couple times on carnival.

NCL (norwegian dawn) was okay.
