NOSaints1 Posted February 19, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Trying to decide, Royal, Princess or Celebrity? Just want your feedback if you've been on jewel or the other ones and if so what're they like and worth the price?

Working 2 Cruise Posted February 19, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Would very much depend on the length and cost. And time of year, accommodations, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted February 19, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) Are itineraries identical? Tell us about yourself. Have you cruised before? Age and likes? What ships are you looking at other than Jewel? Are you looking at a verandah, inside etc???? In other words, we need more info to help.

Also, Celebrity is no longer doing those cruises... Not sure about Royal Caribbean unless you want one of the very short repo cruises, which are not really representative of the cruise line as they are so short.

shredie Posted February 19, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I guess I would view it as a chance to check out the new Royal Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivesLikeMario Posted February 19, 2014 #7 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Celebrity Century is doing many Pacific Coastals in March, April & May. I did a coastal on the Solstice and really enjoyed it, but have also done them on Princess and enjoyed them also. OP-If you can give us more details as to what itineraries you're comparing, you'll get a better response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Royal Princess doesn't do Pacific Coastals. She's on the East Coast, Caribbean and in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shredie Posted February 19, 2014 #11 Share Posted February 19, 2014 The OP means Royal Caribbean, not the Royal Princess..... OH! I missed the comma! I should have paid more attention to that t-shirt I saw that said "Let's eat Grandma" and "Let's eat, Grandma" and "Commas save lives." :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the Century is a much older ship than the Crown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOSaints1 Posted February 20, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted February 20, 2014 35 and my wife's 33. We've cruised only on Carnival. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivesLikeMario Posted February 20, 2014 #15 Share Posted February 20, 2014 If choosing between the two, I would go with the Crown Princess. It's a bigger ship, more to do and a slightly younger crowd. Plus, it's newer than the Century and the Century is leaving Celebrity's fleet soon so things may not be quite up to par with other Celebrity ships. JMHO FWIW.

Astro Flyer Posted February 20, 2014 #16 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Yes, it is and a lot, lot smaller too. ;) Cruise Critic says the Century is doing a year of farewell cruises & leaving the Celebrity fleet in 2015 going to their French-operated sister company Croisieres de France. http://www.cruisecritic.com/news/news.cfm?ID=5735 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, there are some really great "au revoir" specials for Century sailings. I think it's time they finally got rid of that small ship, but I know it has a really strong following of loyal cruisers who will really miss it.
