TravelerRoss Posted February 12, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2015 VERY NICE! I've been waiting for RSVP to return to HAL for the Caribbean cruise. Looking forward to picking out a cabin as soon as the booking process is available. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

absolutboy20 Posted February 15, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Interesting! Atlantis is back to two sailings next year in the Caribbean so they probably didn't want to charter a ship the size of Regal again. Third year in a row that the dates don't align with my work schedule =( Hope you had a great time boytjie besides the unexpected detour. Watched the packed sail away.

Darrell6t Posted February 18, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2015 We signed up for next year. A nice ship and an interesting itinerary. They made a point of saying that the RSVP ship would be the only one in port at St. Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdez101 Posted February 19, 2015 #12 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I hear alot of guys happy to return to HAL. Why? Is it the service? I've only been on MSC and Princess Regal with RSVP and Norwegian Breakaway straight cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted February 19, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I hear alot of guys happy to return to HAL. Why? Is it the service? I've only been on MSC and Princess Regal with RSVP and Norwegian Breakaway straight cruise. Since we did a lot of RSVP cruises on HAL, being familiar with the layout of the ship is one plus. The service has always been very good and the same goes for the food. There is only one dining room (on two levels) so no shuttling between the different dining rooms like on the Divina and the Regal. I do prefer the parties on the aft deck - the dance floor isn't broken up into different areas the way it often happens when it is around the midship pools. The large TV screen will be missing though and DJ Tony Built has used it so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hybucket Posted March 16, 2015 #16 Share Posted March 16, 2015 When I signed up, RSVP told me that the cruise was already 50% sold. I'll bet there are a lot of guys glad to see Holland America back. The Princess was fine for a one-shot (you should pardon the expression), but I much prefer a HAL ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boytjie Posted March 17, 2015 Author #17 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I expect it to sell out well before sail date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybucket Posted March 17, 2015 #18 Share Posted March 17, 2015 FYI for those who were on the 2015 Carib Cruise - sad to report that performer Cashetta passed away in her sleep Sunday night. She had been performing for the winter in Puerto Vallarta. Terrible loss. Great talent. She will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chip1969 Posted May 8, 2015 #25 Share Posted May 8, 2015 RSVP does it again... two party themes are already announced! The color tea-dance on February 14th is Violet and February 9th is a Mardi Gras theme party. How is this possible? Feb 14th is the day the cruise ends in Ft. Lauderdale at 7am. :) We are considering jumping back on to RSVP for this cruise and will be officially deciding this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
