keith75 Posted August 19, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Thinking about doing the Legend out of Tampa next year. It's kind of hard to go by pictures, so I was wondering how does the Legend compare to the Glory or even the Dream. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuyahoga11 Posted August 19, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Bigger than fantasy class but small than all the rest. Great layout, less crowded. My favorite ship to date. Will be sailing her for the 4th time next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be sailing her for the 4th time next year. Thanks Cuya! Ready to go back to the Caymans, and kind of done with the giant ships and crowds for at least one year. Had lots of fun on the Glory and valor, the Legend seems like it may be a good one for us to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dulcimergirl Posted August 19, 2013 #4 Share Posted August 19, 2013 See all the ships in my signature? Legend is my favorite. Love the layout, food, crew, serenity deck. Love the casino too, but it doesn't love me. Carnival does.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEOWSMURPHY Posted August 19, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Love the Spirit class ships which the Legend is one...It is one of my favorite ships, easy to get around on no matter what deck you are on...perfect size in my opinion...not so large that you get "lost in the crowd" and the plus is that it's a great itinerary....we'll be on her for the 5th time in 47 days and I can't wait...

I agree Meow! The crowds and having to walk a mile gets old quick on the big ships. I'm feeling good about the Legend. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Dancer Posted August 19, 2013 #8 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Going on repo from NYC to Tampa in Oct. 2nd time on Legend, but many, many years ago. Smaller ship, but looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pjnc Posted August 19, 2013 #10 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Hi Love that it has the sliding roof so if it is raining they just close it and the pool and surrounding deck is still useable. The fact that it has a pool at the aft and a large spa in the gym are all plusses in my opinion. The spirit is my favorite class of ships Hope you get to experience it pat murrells inlet. sc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dulcimergirl Posted August 19, 2013 #11 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Better hurry, once she leaves Tampa for Australia she won't be back. (as far as I know) They will put Pride, another Spirit class in her place. I will try her down the road. lol so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBanana1240 Posted August 19, 2013 #12 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Well her ports are Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman, order is different. She is a lot smaller than the Dream and Glory. Not as many lines for food. No poolside movie screen. No water works park. More thought out and easier than the Dream. Has over 1,000 less people. The ratio for people/public space is a lot better, so not as much crowding. 2 pools and a lot of deck chairs. Lots of outer sports. Gym is beautiful and fully equipped. Spa is relaxing. These were based off of the Carnival Pride, but they are built the same and the deck plan is the same. Difference is itineraries, names and décor! Hope you choose it and enjoy it!! By the time you go on it she would have been Aussie-fied and you could get a lot more benefits than listed above. Either way enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisetobeaches Posted August 19, 2013 #13 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Sailed the Legend in 2009 and 2011. Going on a B2B in January on her. So, you could say we like it............:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted August 19, 2013 #14 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I will be on the Legend in a few weeks and taking lots of pictures! :) Depending on when you cruise, I think Legend has a dry dock scheduled for next February and there will be a few changes made.

Lovefuninthesun Posted August 19, 2013 #15 Share Posted August 19, 2013 We are sailing the Legend for the first time this November. I haven't heard one single negative thing about the ship -- everyone seems to genuinely like it. I am really looking forward to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith75 Posted August 19, 2013 Author #16 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Thanks to everyone for the wonderful information you are providing me on the Legend! I appreciate it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum6264 Posted August 19, 2013 #17 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I've been on the Glory once, the Dream once, and the Legend twice. Given a chance, I'd make that 3 times. I didn't like the layout on the Glory, the Dream was nice, but too many people, too many lines. The Legend was a great size, great layout, and great service.

Davey Wavey Posted August 20, 2013 #18 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Went on Legend 7/2012, Dream 7/2013, and heading for the Legend again in November. Was on Glory a few years ago. Glory was small yet felt crowded because of bad layout. It never felt easy going from one part of the ship to another. Dream was crowded because of lots of people. Crowds everywhere. And the lower levels of the ship were hard to navigate. Legend was just perfect in size and layout. Inside our cabins, though, we couldn't tell the difference from one ship to another.

debee1015 Posted August 20, 2013 #20 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I've been on the Glory, the Legend and the Dream, and I'll be returning to the Legend in October. It's really easy to get around and if its rainy out get lost in the "enchanted forest". Make sure you have a book with you. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigercat Posted August 20, 2013 #21 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I have been on all 3 ships. They all have their good points. This will be our 2nd time on the Legend and we have also been on the Spirit. I love the Legend because of it's size. We leave in 13 days, I can't wait. tigercat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfb4cruzing Posted August 20, 2013 #22 Share Posted August 20, 2013 We've been on Glory and Legend. We don't like the large ships. Legend is excellent and Tampa was and easy to go out of. Going under the bridge was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
