FLSteve11 Posted March 4, 2017 #551 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Dont make the same mistake we did. Took about 25 cruises in a row with Carnival and always had a good time but found out there are better ways to cruise especially if you want to see the world. These days for caribbean cruises we do Carnival but away from continental US Princess. I agree. I love the variety you get on the different cruise lines' date=' and would not see any reason to tie yourself to one line. We are D+ on RCL but only Sail on them half the time, and they have much better loyalty benefits. They are nice, and I count the benefits when comparing cruises, but getting to try and experience different things are a better deal in the end to me Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget Queen Posted March 4, 2017 #554 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I think that's a great way to approach it. Carnival has Caribbean island hoping down to a science. And so I think they'll always be our 'go to' for that experience. But I've already said that when we do Alaska, we're probably going Princess. And in retirement, we'd love to do something longer and more exotic. I fully agree. Carnival is a winner for my Western Caribbean snorkel itinerary priority. But they are way too limited for my travels. I was fortunate as I did not "wait" until retirement and have always traveled. Last 10 years of my working- 3-4 months/year. I'd have nothing but regrets now, if I hadn't. Time is finite and way too many retired people don't travel. I've been living in the fast lane since I retired 4 years ago, now gone over half the year. I'm restless and can't stay home. :) So much I want to see and do. And the deals keep coming. :) (on the NCL Spirit tomorrow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nein2 Posted March 4, 2017 #555 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I thought the complaining about complainers was reserved for John's Facebook page. That's where the beggars go for berries and plastic crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuizer2 Posted March 29, 2017 #559 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Well, it has been three weeks since anyone posted. Have there been any changes yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightrythm Posted March 29, 2017 #560 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Well, it has been three weeks since anyone posted. Have there been any changes yet? You're kidding right? When something new comes out, the boards will be lit up with people talking about everything they think is wrong with the new plan. Don't worry, it won't sneak by you. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micahs Grandad Posted March 30, 2017 #561 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Well, it has been three weeks since anyone posted. Have there been any changes yet? When they are almost ready to announce it they will tell us it will be announced in three weeks. Than they will tell us oops not ready be back soon. 6 months later if we are lucky they might have something to tell us. In other words hurry up and wait.
