Back and forth (alternating San Juan and FLL). If not ... I'm also looking at [SIZE=1]Princess.[/SIZE] I'm going w/ a group.

tinkerme1 Posted October 28, 2008 #355 Share Posted October 28, 2008 The canal transits (and I do recommend a FULL transit) are usually in the Spring around April and again in the Fall around October or November. Each has their good points/bad points. Spring can be hot, although the weather is usually not rainy. Fall can be very rainy but much cooler. Either one is great. Personally, I'd take the one that leaves you off closer to home!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
