Help me pick a cruise line?

[MizLizzie]

The dh and I took our first NCL cruise in '08 and loved it, especially the spa pool, etc. Definitely the cruise line for us. So we immediately booked another cruise with NCL -- a Baltics cruise out of Dover. Unfortunately, due to his employer cutting back his vacation days, we didn't have enough to cover the 11 days for the cruise and had to cancel. We have decided to try to re-book a shorter Baltics cruise in August or September, but NCL doesn't offer one so far as I can see.

 

So . . . here's the question -- we'll have to book something around 7 days, not 11. What other cruise lines are most similar to NCL? I've looked at Costa and MSC and, well, they aren't exactly NCL. I think maybe Princess does short Baltics, but they seem awfully expensive.

 

Any suggestions from you diehard cruisers?

 

 

Thanks,

Lizzie

 

ps: I will cross-post this on the NCL board

I know both Constellation (Celebrity) and the HAL vista class ships have the spa therapy pools. Perhaps one of them will offer a shorter cruise.
