This might be a big self-serving, but the topic came up yesterday when we booked a future cruise on our 19th cruise line.  It is not that we intentionally try different lines, but we do enjoy variety.  This topic also came up on our recent Westerdam cruise, where we befriended one of the Guest Entertainers who told us he had worked on 13 different lines.  

 

So folks, for some fun tell us all how many cruise lines you have tried!

Looking to add Cunard and Viking before too much longer.

Great posts.  But lets be more specific.  I was looking for ocean cruise lines, not tour companies that charter ships belonging to another cruise line.  We also did not add river cruise companies to the mix, although perhaps that is a good idea.   Another issue, for us, is other lines we might consider in the near future.  At our age we can only think of one line (Viking Ocean Cruises) that might work into our plans  (we have been on Viking River....but do not count that among our OP (only has Ocean cruise lines).

 

Since others are posting lists (great idea) we will join that fray :_

RCCL (RCI)

Sitmar

Princess

Celebrity

Azamara

Seabourn

HAL

Orient

Regency

Crystal

Zeus

MSC

NCL

Carnival

Renaissance

Radisson Seven Seas

Explora Journeys (tomorrow)

Oceania (March 2024)

Silverseas (Dec 2024)

Enjoy. Look forward to hearing your thoughts on this line.

If the line were to be judged on pre-cruise support/communications, they will be a big failure.  Of course, many of us have had delt with cruise lines that had awful land-based customer service but excelled onboard.  Even after 50 years of extensive cruising, we have never gambled on a new ship of a new cruise line...with nobody having a clue what to expect :).  Gonna be fun.  Also looking forward to finally trying "O" this spring.

I had to write them down first; my total is 9 -well the first one wasn't labeled a cruise, but it sure did pique my interest.

 

Starting in 1969 (at 8 years old)

 

 The French Line (only once on SS France from NYC to Le Havre; we flew back)

 

Skip forward to 1995  

 

American Hawaii Cruises(x 6-7 - I lived in Hawaii in the 90's a VERY low price one Christmas got me on board, and I haven't stopped cruising.)

 

Royal Caribbean (x a lot -my go to default line .. first was 2 weeks out of Singapore on the Sun Viking.)

 

Norwegian Cruise Line (2 x, but one was SS Norway.. It was interesting to see how much of the ship looked sort of  familiar from my first time - although the children's dining room was gone. .) 

 

Windjammer Barefoot Cruise Line(MV Amazing Grace x 2)

 

Cunard (QE2 - San Diego to Honolulu, NYC to Southampton; QM2 UK - NYC x3)

 

Premier  (SS Rembrandt x1)

Star Clippers (Royal Clipper x 3)

MSC (x 1 MSC Fantasia Brail - Portugal.)

 

Aloha,

 

John

Five so far:

 

  1. Carnival (14 sailings, 2 booked)
  2. Celebrity (5 sailings, 1 booked)
  3. Princess (3 sailings)
  4. Royal Caribbean (2 sailings, 2 booked)
  5. Holland America (1 sailing)

 

In addition, I have a booking on Norwegian.

 

Curiously, I can't, at this time, imagine booking with any cruise line other than those six - unless one of them is chartered by someone that offers a cruise that interests me.
