Europe -- Independence or Navigator?

[mal&jason]

Hi all,

 

Planning our next cruise and haven't been on RCCL for about 30 years (no joke). We just got back in September from the NCL Epic Western Med trip and were in the Haven, which we loved.

 

A couple of questions:

 

1. Would you choose the Navigator or the Independence for a France/Spain trip?

 

2. Has anyone been on the 6, 7, or 8 day cruises for France/Spain? If so, what did you think?

 

3. Which ship has better perks for suite folks?

 

Thanks so much,

 

Mallory

Either ship

Anything less than 10 is to short

3. Which ship has better perks for suite folks?

Not much difference

 

Thanks so much,

Any cruise is great but less than 10 days with the travel time to Europe is to short for me. At least add a few before or after days.

I agree, either ship would be fine, and the longer the better. Indy has a kiddie splash area (H2O zone), so that might be a good thing or bad thing for you.
