Next cruise dilemma...

[MalGee64]

Wonderful problem to have - we're starting to look at our 2012 cruise holiday (2011 is all stitched up with Cabo and Hawaii), and we've narrowed it down to two - one is the Spirit transPacific repo in October, the other is the Breeze transAtlantic repo in November. The Breeze would be b2b with either the last of the Med runs, or the first (and our first!) of her Caribbean runs. Which to choose?

 

I've already crossed the Pacific both ways while in the Navy, so can tick that box, but being on Carnival's inaugural Australian cruise would be nice. However, the Breeze trip would fill in a lot of the rest of the round the world target I've set myself... as well as cruising the Caribbean for the first time.

 

What would YOU do?

 

Cheers,

Mal

I have some friends doing the Canada to Hawaii or the Hawaii to Australia, 2 legs repo on Spirit. It sure has some great ports to visit. Id rather do that one. Are you doing both legs, or just one?

 

Breeze will be new, but the ports arent going to be anything exciting.

 

Some people are liking the new Dream class size and some not so much loving the crowding. Iv booked Magic, so it will be interesting to see.

If money isnt a problem I would go for the Breeze.. you can't beat the Caribbean... enjoy whatever you decide you are very lucky to be able to choose either;)

Id rather see Hawaii and all those islands, but if you have seen them all..

 

Breeze when it hits Miami is doing a 2 day first, and then a 8 day.

 

You could do 2 days in Miami I guess in between or make it a B2B with the 2 day?

Wish I could do such a long cruise. Both sound great to me.
