Thanks for all the work put into the research Jan but we're going to have to bow out of this cruise for a few reasons. First we have done this itinerary (except for Kotor) numerous times (you will absolutely love Dubrovnik.... stunning), secondly we do not like to vacation in the summer, especially to countries where there is little or no air conditioning, thirdly we avoid flying during summer school vacation time, don't like the high fares, and then the main reason is that we will be doing a safari to South Africa at the end of summer 2019, which will be just a couple of months after this cruise - and that means saving $$$$$$'s. Very sorry but it is a fabulous itinerary and we loved the sister ship the Legend of the Seas.

ExpatCruise - thank you so much - that's a lot of good information. It sounds like the best option for us going through Dubai. I need to check into this .... again thank you.

That's great - both Singapore and Hong Kong are on our bucket list ...... as well as Phuket, Ho Chi Min, Bali and so on, and so on. The only problem is the loooong flight from Tampa, Florida to get to any of the above ports.

ExpatCruise, where do you live? Are you close to a port?

ExpatCruise I agree with you on the size of the ship and we also love the size of Princess ships. Even though we have cruised most and love Royal Caribbean and really like their mid size ships our favorite ships are still Princess ships. Oh so many awesome ships and so little time .... right???

K&R, We loved the Maasdam as well. She used to go out of Tampa which was great for us. The only thing I found a little strange about her is that she didn't have a Centrum area per se. But our cruise experience was excellent and the staff were amazing!

Hey Nancy, I know exactly what you're saying about the bug biting you. i was bitten after my first cruise and the rest is history. Never been on a bad cruise, just some have been better then others. We have tried many of the cruise lines but not NCL yet. Looking forward to chatting with you on the boards.
