A Fairly Detailed Radiance of the Seas Alaska Review...Thanks. :):):):)

Anyone stayed in a B2 cabin on Britannia, and does anyone know the difference between B2 and B5, thanks in advance:cool:

B2 (along with B1) are described as Penthouse Suites & B5 is described as Premium Suites.. B2 is only on Deck B & B5 is NOT on Deck B but on the other decks. :):):):)

So am I. :):):):)

Kevin...thank you very much for your photos and information. :):):):)

I might be jumping a head a bit, but here are a couple of pics I have of the Sunshine (both interior and exterior). Here is the atrium lobby bar.

 

I can see your priorities are in place with this First Ship Photo. :):):):)

jpcello, Thank You for your straight forward detailed review...the specialty restaurant food matches the view of a number of other reviews. Amazing you even had an OK time with the incredible noise problem. I appreciate your information. The Thumbs Up means I enjoyed your honesty & writing.

Sorry you didn't enjoy your cruise.

 

I'm curious, once you knew that they couldn't move your room, what were you hoping to accomplish by your further complaining? I'm not trying to be rude, just curious. What could they have done to resolve the issue?

Apparently they got $200 by continuing to complain (which really does not resolve...& IMO not enough)...but they demonstrated to us how the ship service responds.

Very Entertaining Photo Review...Looking forward to more. :):):):)

Thanks for the Excellent Photo Review and the Fun Times. :):):):)

Thank You for your Great Review with Photos. :):):):)

Enticing isn't my thing. While I'm sure that the crowded pool shots might appeal to some, deck 15 is a problem for me. I posted pics (with time stamp) to show the novice traveler what they may expect on an Away ship.

 

As many of us know, pools on cruise ships are the size of a postage stamp and tend to be crowded. IMHO; the Away ships up the ante' on crowding (around deck 15) and anyone booking with the vision of lounging around the pool relaxing with a nice book might want to consider other options. Realistic expectations make happy travelers.

 

As I stated, I wouldn't choose an Away ship for a girlfriends trip because we like to lounge around an adult pool in peace and quiet; but for a romantic trip with my man (where we have absolutely no intention of spending time poolside) the waterfront dining experience on Deck 8 a very unique perk of the Away class and makes up for any crowding on deck 15. With so many vessels to choose from, I think it's important that travelers select based on what they are seeking to experience on that particular holiday.

 

As far at the beef wellington, the peppercorn sauce was a bit much but I literally cut that meat with a fork (no exaggeration) and my mouth waters looking at the scallops. Subjective.

 

I don't consider myself a foodie, but I can't understand how NCL gets such a bad rap with their food choices. I've sailed on Celebrity (which is known for their food), HAL, Princess, RCCL, etc... and honestly don't see a ton of difference. The garden buffet had a special hand tossed salad section each day for lunch (ceasar, greek, chef, cobb, etc...) You pointed to what you wanted and the lovely lady made a salad to order. The ingredients were fresh and abundant and I ate from this salad station nearly every day for lunch. I don't have pictures of the salad station because my hands were always full with the food, but I did find it a perfectly light lunch and Delish!!!

 

For breakfast, I did a run up to Flamingo each morning (secret alert) and brought back an egg and cheese muffin with a mound of salmon for my pescatarian man and he was in HEAVEN. I also brought him a hot chocolate cinnamon roll (they had plain and lime, but he's a chocolate buff) and one of those incredible cheesy danish cuban thingies for me. OMG, my mouth is watering. No line. No fuss. Yum.

 

 

 

 

 

Outstanding Photo Review...You only ate at the Specialty Restaurants...theye're generally viewed to be okay...its the MDR that's getting the bad rap.

I'm also looking forward to your Photo Review. :):):):)

Okay, so another new feature added. In cell M1, enter your own sales tax rate and that will be factored in the total retail price, plus the corkage fee.

 

Enjoy!! And happy shopping and tasting, whichever path you choose.

stellers36...outstanding effort and truly excellent & remarkably useful information. :):):):)

As much as we like Princess, and are planning to go on Regal in Feb, Royal Caribbean can't be beat for their cutting edge activities. We did Quantum in January and loved the Ifly and bumper cars. We also really enjoyed the Dynamic dining. Because of the activities I find the average age a little lower. RCi ships are really beautiful inside.

We are still a big fan of Princess but find there are so many different options on RCI.

I still believe Princess does have the best itineraries. It just depends what you are looking for a particular cruise. So we go back and forth between the two.

We like both lines...they are two entirely different cruise ships. :):):):)

Thank you so much for your Good Sea Princess Photo Review Visit Post...Not very many out there. :):):):)

Detailed, Descriptive, Interesting Photo Review...We Like the Grand Class & went on the 5 Day Caribbean Princess (really enjoyed though we don't usually do cruises that short, either). :):):):)

Thanks for the Fine Photo Review. :):):):)

Welcome to Cruise Critic and here's the most recent wine list I've seen & is what we had in April. It's up to you to determine whether it's reasonably priced (add 15% gratuity to these prices) but to me it's similar to land based restaurants & is less expensive than on RCI.

Thanks for the Wine List & Wine Prices. :):):):)
