Celebrity Solstice or Ruby Princess

[dwntwnphx82]

Hi - I just booked a cruise on the Solstice for next Summer, and I am really excited about it. Now I am looking at the Ruby Princess. It has nearly the same itinerary, but includes a couple of ports that I really wanted to see that the Solstice doesn't include. The Ruby also looks very nice, and I am wondering what people think. Solstice or Ruby?

Last January DH and I were on the Ruby and a friend of ours was on the Solstice with her mother. We all had a great time and from what I understand the ships are comparable so you'll have a great time either way. If you prefer the Ruby itinerary then you might want to switch.

I was on the Ruby in 2010 and loved it. The lounges are really nice, especially the Adagio. The food was better, I thought, from the last Princess cruise I took. Can't speak for Celebrity since I haven't cruised that line.
