Princess or Norwegian

[cruizinonup]

I am 34, my DH is 37. We are planning a cruise for late 09 to celebrate our 15 th anniversary. We are trying to decide between a few different ships. We are looking at a balcony suite on an Eastern Car. cruise. Can anyone tell me anything about Emerald Princess vs. Norwegian Pearl or at least Princess vs. Norwegian from past experiances. Thanks

Happy almost anniversary.. There is an entire tread on this very subject which you can read. It was started about 4 or 5 days ago with everyone having a different view. I am slightly partial to NCL, but either line is fine. The overall age group on NCl is slightly younger, I think the stats: averyage on NCL 47, Princess 52 but am not positive of this. Are you talking about a full suite or just a balcony cabin? I ask, because according to clients NCL has better suites, personally, I can't judge as we usually just go for standard outside cabins.

I have been on both, always in a balcony cabin. In MY opinion, the food on Princess is a little better, but the balcony cabins on NCL are a bit larger. I would look at price and itinerary. You probably can't go wrong with either.
