Another factor is whether your preference is Saturday-Saturday (Mardi Gras) or Sunday-Sunday (Celebration). If you work the typical M-F work week, perhaps you'd prefer the day off before returning to the grind.
I booked a Venezia sailing for September but cancelled it about a month ago. I wasn't impressed by the reviews and videos I read and watched then or since. I do have the Oasis booked in October though.
What time of year are you looking to sail?.....if during the football season, then I'd go with the Independence since it has a Playmakers sports bar. Liberty does not have one.
There are other choices to eat dinner. Solarium Bistro, windjammer buffet, El Loco Fresh, Park Cafe, plus plenty of pay restaurants. It would just be one night's deviation from the MDR.
We get SNY in these parts. Mets are -165 favorite with mad Max on the hill. That's a lot of wood for team that's lost 8 of 9, and their biggest hitter out. 😬
I just got off the Legend last week and they never sent me the chocolate strawberries, delight, etc. whatsoever. And the gift was a fanny pack at the photo/pixels desk. Didn't even go and collect it.
