If you were offered a free ticket for any cruise ship in the world...

[BoiiMcFly]

which one would you pick? I would probably go for Harmony of the Seas. I just want to see it in person. Must be huge.

[AussieOmni]

Easy, The World.

[sparks1093]

Whichever ship sails out of or near Rostenberg, Germany (Baltic Sea cruise), it's an interesting itinerary and DW's family would be able to join us. (Or maybe one of the around the world cruises, that would be cool, too.)

Agreed.

[Aquahound]

No around the World cruises me. I've found that 10 days is about my max aboard a cruise ship.

 

But if I were to choose a ship I most want to experience, I would pick one of Viking's new ocean cruise ships.

[sail7seas]

Maas dam and/or Noordam without question. I love b oth of those ships and have very

strong ties to each. They are two cery, very special ships.

Is therew a quewstion in the opening post? If so, I missed it. All I 'hear from my eread offd that post it is a need forf validation of their choices of cleaning thnerir cab in. good for them. t istheir ca bin. If that is what they wish, to do, go for it. BUT no one reading here should think they are in some way lessser or less fastidiious if trhedy do not reclean their cab in. What is the purpose of thisthread? To determine who is the best home -maker, house keeper? Who keeps a clean house or hotel room, ship ca in? crazy, IMO. Who cares? Clean to you r heart's content if that is what you wish, OR , do not clean a ca bin, i f you don't wish. :D Is there a prize for who raaves how clean they are and likely how dirty the rest of us are? wHAT IS Tthe PRIZE?

Seruiously, is there a point or a question somewhere? Or arewe to applaud those who take the time to not only clean their cab in but to tell us how clean they are? :D

 

 

 

The joke is how would any of us know or care if the one who gets the Mr /MS Cleana award is not the same person who handles food in Lido aF

 

ter using rest room and may or may not have washed their hands.

 

OP where do you want us togto with your thread?

Wrong thread?

Wrong thread?

 

Let's hope so.

[AmazedByCruising]

Let's hope so.

 

 

This thread I guess.

 

I'd be on The World, too.

I'd pick the most exclusive, most expensive luxury cruise ship. Since I will never be able to afford to cruise on such a ship with MY money, I certainly would be quite comfortable cruising on it with someone else's money. :D

[sail7seas]

Wrong thread?

 

 

Yes, right! :) Sorry

 

B ut to answer this thread...... i would choose Maasadam and/or Noordam hands down. Two VERY special l ships to which I have hugely strrong ties.

Yup, me too. I'm not sure if a cruising residence is really a "cruise ship" though, so in case it doesn't qualify, my second choice - based solely on the ship and line, not the itinerary - would be Wind Star or Wind Pride (Windstar Cruises).

Yup. Europa 2 for me. EM

[navybankerteacher]

Prinsendam, on an itinerary yet to be determined, with boarding, and debarkation, by tender at a town of my choice in S. W. Connecticut.

[jocap]

Along with several of my forum friends, it has to be the Hebridean Princess.

Small, old with- I think- 50 cabins, luxury of an old fashioned kind, and visits to Hebridean Islands impossible for larger ships.

Queen Elizabeth has chartered this ship twice for all her family; my forum friends and I are pledged to do the same if one of us wins the lottery...:rolleyes: :D

[Bizmark'sMom]

The Europa 2. Absolutely.

[iancal]

We can't afford free.

 

We don't want a world cruise....too long for us.

[FlyerTalker]

Perhaps the nuclear icebreaker Fifty Years of Victory on a voyage to the North Pole. Or maybe one of the month long Antarctica cruises from New Zealand to the Ross Ice Shelf.

[GUT2407]

Easy, The World.

 

Awww you beat me to it.

[geoherb]

My memory of "The World" was in Haines, Alaska, when some of the passengers from it were on an excursion bus with us. We had booked an independent kayaking excursion at Chilkoot Lake while our ship was in Skagway. The World was docked in Haines. The independent excursion company offered several different activities, and the passengers from the World were going to be riding ATVs. They convinced the bus driver to stop at a donut shop before their rides. I was amazed that anyone on a cruise ship would have a craving for donuts. But then I found out that on the World the passengers paid for their food. The donut shop was more than a treat. It was a bargain compared to what they'd been paying on their ship.

[SPacificbound]

A cruise from any US port to Cape Town SA, but not a world cruise.

This one -

 

"ULTIMATE ANTARCTICA

Nov 08 - Dec 05, 2017

An unmatched nature photography tour to the legendary wildlife and scenic areas of South Georgia, the Falkland Islands, and the Antarctic Peninsula; Join nine of the industry’s finest photography and wildlife leaders for a remarkable 24-day voyage to some of the most photogenic places on Earth."

 

Cost is only ~20,000 which for 28 days in the Antarctica is pretty reasonable.

 

Or else the Antarctica tour from New Zealand described by FlyerTalker. A last selection would be a combination Northwest + Northeast passage cruise.
