Iluvcruising2 Posted July 6, 2012 #1 Share Posted July 6, 2012 I am wondering whether there is any interest in a picture review of our Brilliance of the Seas Dubai cruise (December 2011). I didn't get a chance to do a review earlier. I quite like the Brilliance. A very beautiful ship, even though it has yet to be revitalized with all the latest stuff. Anyway, since the cruise was a while back, not sure if there is interest. So I'll just post here to gauge the interest level before deciding whether to continue.

Iluvcruising2 Posted July 7, 2012 Author #13 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Final landing approach into Dubai International, Dec 2011. Just look at all the sand dunes. Amazing stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iluvcruising2 Posted July 7, 2012 Author #14 Share Posted July 7, 2012 The decision to go to Dubai for the 7 night cruise on the Brilliance came suddenly. We were just back from our Legend OTS 7 night cruise (June 2011) and we badly wanted to cruise again! My dear wife was looking through the RCI website and noticed this interesting itinerary. The prices looked really good, even though we would have to fly ourselves to Dubai and back. Furthermore, JS 1100 was available! So we booked it! And got my parents and sister plus her hubby to come along too! My family took JS 1100. My parents took the aft balcony cabin next to us. My sis & husband took the balcony cabin next to my parents. This was the Singapore Airlines plane that we took to Dubai. Flight time was about 7 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iluvcruising2 Posted July 7, 2012 Author #17 Share Posted July 7, 2012 We landed one day before the cruise and stayed at a very large service apartment. The next morning, we could walk around to the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
