Since practically no one on this board (other than us) has sailed on Windstar or Radisson, it hardly pays to put in our nominations; but we'll do so anyway, with nominations only in a few categories.

Best food by cruise line: Radisson

Best food by ship: Radisson Seven Seas Navigator

Best all around service, best crew, best cruise ship: Radisson Navigator

Best cabins: Radisson

Best entertainment: Radisson Navigator (* We were on a jazz cruise with jazz masters such as Bucky Pizzarelli, so of course it was better than normal ship entertainment. Otherwise Radisson would not be a nominee-very standard entertainment)

Best itinerary - Windstar, by a country mile! None of the big ships can get into the ports that a small ship can visit. The Mediterranean and Caribbean itineraries are much better than on the big lines.

Best looking ship. Wind Surf. We also nominate HAL Rotterdam VI, the best looking non-sail ship we've seen.

For now, we'll stay on the board so everyone can send Joan birthday greetings on her Thanksgiving birthday, 11/24. (Mine was 11/3, but the profiles only allow you to list one birthday, even when two people share a CruiseCrazies name. Since we're not the only duo (see, e.g., JoeyandDavid) maybe that should change.) Joe

Mebert,

Here is your original post. Are we to assume you are including our original answer from this post?

I really have nothing to compare to as we have only sailed Carnival Ecstasy. We are sailing on RCL Rhapsody of the Seas Dec 4.

I will say after 11 and 3/4 months of work...all is good.
