How does Crown & Anchor compare to MSC Voyagers Club…? what line has the best loyalty scheme? As a Diamond + member I believe it’s worth getting MSC to match my status and try an MSC cruise.

great idea

excellent post!!

boring of the seas

interesting point

agree

Will Utopia or Icon of the seas do any cruises from Southampton before they go to America?

ahhh nice such a small world!!

I 100% agree.

me too. It all felt staged and fake…

celebrity is not doing well at all. I don’t care what anyone else tells me on CC but there is a huge drop in standards. I am a big supporter of Celebrity and RCCL but will be looking else where now.

agree. Staff were apologetic towards us for issues we didn’t even experience 😂 they were just apologising to everyone.

I oversee quite a large F&B business and it’s the same issue in the UK. No one can find staff, it must be infinitely more challenging to find staff around the world to live/work on a ship.

how did you find Cunard and MSC post pandemic?

same here Elite plus but I will seriously think twice going with Celebrity again…

I haven’t and desperate to try but I am now worried it won’t be worth the money.

I have been on loads of cruises with various lines but now trend to cruise only with RCCL or Celebrity. I recently got off the Silhouette and I can say without question it was THE worst cruise I have been on in every aspect. Food was shocking Entertainment in the main theatre was beyond awful, every show was extremely poor. Service in the bars slow Room attendant non existent Queues getting back onto the ship Cruise Director poor Given the higher price point (which I don’t mind paying) I no longer see why I would cruise on Celebrity and would rather opt to cruise with RCCL. If not RCCL or Celebrity who else should one try?

I really hope not. I can’t deal with the Indy again, it’s so boring now having been on it around 12 times from Southampton.

good point it would be chaos.

I still don’t think it’s about the size as they cruise around the med just fine with Oasis class ships.. I can’t quite work it out. …maybe it’s a capacity issue as they used to have two ships sailing out of Southampton…

No such good news as I wanted a different class of ship.

Thanks

What ship will be sailing from Southampton in 2025? I hope it’s not the Anthem again…

Indeed, it’s a simple calculation, Berlitz Cruise guide has done it for you.

per ship not per stateroom and how does Celebrity compare to others…
