It is pretty much personal choice. Have you compared the ship excursions for each cruise? That would give you an idea of the activities in each port.

I personally enjoyed Puerto Limon, Cartagena, and Cozumel. In Curacao (or onboard the ship) I ate something that kept me under the weather for 3 days - luckily it was a 14 night cruise and Celebrity was great about it.

We've never been to Bonaire and I'm not sure about George Town - I think we did a fun boat ride there, but they all blend together.

Also, check the Roll Calls to see if there are more compatible people on board.

Remember, which ever one you choose, you will have as much fun as you decide to have. So, I guess I'm saying, don't overthink it. Neither will be perfect and neither will be dreadful.

I would choose the latter since I love Costa Rica and would enjoy the visit to Gatun Lock at Colon, Panama.

I'd choose this one....oh wait! I did!. FWIW, if going to Panama, I'd rather go through the canal. This one has a pretty active roll call if you are talking about the November 27th cruise.

The second itinerary without a shadow of a doubt. The port's are much more interesting.

Thanks all. Guess I was concerned about the safety at the ports in Panama, Columbia and Costa Rica. Guess that is not an issue. I will probably lean towards that sailing.
