Cruzaholic41 Posted August 11, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Despite the majority of my cruises having been on Royal Caribbean, I'd have to say that Celebrity is my favorite. I just wish they had more available in the Caribbean. Is it too late to edit your post and create a poll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiserbryce Posted August 11, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 11, 2009 out of the few that we have traveled with, RC has been our favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquahound Posted August 11, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Of 3 cruise lines I've experienced so far (NCL, RCI, X), Royal Caribbean gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveScotland Posted August 11, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 11, 2009 If I could only cruise one line from now on it would be Royal Caribbean, especially on one of the Radiance class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridge Maven Posted August 11, 2009 Author #7 Share Posted August 11, 2009 If I could only cruise one line from now on it would be Royal Caribbean, especially on one of the Radiance class ships. I also love Royal Caribbean's Radiance class ships. In my opinion, they are the most beautiful ships at sea, are the perfect size for a ship, and have a good passenger to space ratio.

travelntreats Posted August 11, 2009 #8 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I don't have a specific FAVORITE for all my cruises, as that depends on the itinerary, time of year and the occassion. Also that each cruisline has its strengths and weaknesses. That being said, my most memorable cruise was aboard an HAL ship. Shame that your poll did not allow to select more than one because I personally enjoy several of the options for various reasons. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However RCCL has the best IMO Large ships and friendliest crew. HAL has the most comfortable rooms. And Celebrity the most memorable cruise.

Denny01 Posted August 11, 2009 #13 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Love Bridge Maven's Polls! Good place for one, along with the thread on your favorite line and why. I selected Celebrity and listed on the other thread why. Short answer: for a mass market line, the most 'elegant' and low key. Both very subjective descriptions. One interesting piece of data to go along with this poll. The number of current ships each line has: NCL - 12 CC - 23 Costa - 15 Princess - 18 HAL - 15 'X' - 8 (1 being added shortly makes 9) RCL - 22 MSC - 12 Denny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsuelaw Posted August 11, 2009 #14 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I like NCL, to be fair though, I have only ever been on NCL. I like freestyle and their comfy beds, and thier Jewel Class ships. I am thinking about Princess maybe next time...but not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickEk Posted August 12, 2009 #19 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I voted for Princess... but then again, it's the only line I've cruised with... :p One of these days I'll try another line... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseapril Posted August 12, 2009 #20 Share Posted August 12, 2009 HAL and then Princess- HAL first because of the size of the staterooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GottaLuvCruising Posted August 12, 2009 #21 Share Posted August 12, 2009 We are torn, but chose Princess with a slight edge over Carnival. We love the decor, service and food on Princess. But we love the "Fun", upbeat casual atmosphere on Carnival. We also strongly prefer that their balconies (with rare exception) are covered and private. I've never met a cruise I didn't like. But if all other things were equal, we'd probably pick Princess first, then Carnival. If either of them made staterooms and balconies smoke-free, that line would be our first choice.

05mak05 Posted August 13, 2009 #24 Share Posted August 13, 2009 We've sailed on Princess, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity. Royal Caribbean is first, Princess a close second while Celebrity trails way behind. (We were on the Galaxy and the Millenium. Much depends on the ship, I know.)

BroncosFan2010 Posted August 13, 2009 #25 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Seeing as I have only been on RCCL, I don't feel I can accurately pick from those choices. I like RCCL, but who is to say I would not like something else better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
