I've been waitlisted for the Voyager Christmas cruise for a few weeks and was finally cleared. I've been on the Navigator once and Mariner several times. I'm very excited to try this ship. I'm not so excited about the itinerary - all the usual Caribbean spots - this cruise will be all about the ship. Can anyone give me the pro's and con's of this ship versus the Mariner?
Thanks!

The chief virtue of Voyager and Navigator over Mariner is the standard cabins are fifty square feet larger. Other than that, IMO, they are equal in quality. Different in important ways but equal. Navigator offers a level of intimacy, important to me, that the other two ships don't. The layout of La Veranda on Voyager works much better than that on Mariner. But the Observation Lounge on Mariner is the best! All are wonderful ships. Pat

Well. both are wonderful, but our vote goes for Voyager. Maybe becaue we spent 37 days on her and it feels like home? Maybe. You will LOVE our Voyager.
