I know that carnival own princess and P&O etc and that royal Caribbean own celebrity etc, so it's down to price and itinery for where to go in the Caribbean. No need for drinks package etc, but as our first cruise, we would want a balcony at least. Looked at ships like MSC world America.. Carnival celebration,mardi gras,& vista..celebrity edge class...sun princess and some of the RC ships ( but RC seem more expensive for same itineries).
We like the look of the private islands as well as the caribbean islands.
Bit limited to the period of 3 April 2026 arrival and departing back to uk before 19th april ( school term dates).
P&O stop caribbean by these dates.
Factoring in flights, it looks like £4000 should cover a week away ( or 9 days with flights and hotel the day before cruise).
Gotta save up the pennies.
Does anyone know of real sales and not just the gimmicky year round ones ?
Thanks again
