New Ship New Idea

Let's forget about Azamara buying any more R-ships. Crystal has just announced a major new-build program, so I'm hoping that if RCCL won't spring for new Azamara ships they will look into buying Serenity (and even Symphony). The cabins are smallish, but we're used to that! And the public spaces are wonderful.

A couple of observations on Crystal:

-the staterooms are small by most ships today

-public spaces are clearly a cut above AZ

-the Avenue Saloon is a fantastic piano bar. Maybe the best at sea.

-The dining room/kitchen was not designed for any-time dining. Thus AZ's style will not work without costly changes.

-finally, ships are in excellent condition.
