:cool: Has anyone been on this ship? I saw an intinerary I like on this ship and was wondering if anyone has any comments about this ship? Thank you. :cool:

Happy Sunday, jacketwatch. Sailingrose and jbond both did reviews on this ship. I don't know if the itinerary is still the same but you can check it out in the Reviews section above. Cheryl

jacketwatch what would you like to know? I was on her in July and loved it! Check out my review and I'll be glad to answer any questions you might have.

Hopefully this link to the pics will work:

:cool: Thank you. I read the reviews and was a bit concerned Rose about your comments about the food. I do like the initerary as it hits 3 islands we haven't been to and I think the ship overall seems very :cool: but part of crusing for us is a satisfactory dining experience. On our last (and only) RCI cruise the food was just OK. I hope this newer ship has better fare. I wouod hate to miss the ship and the ports because the selections on the menu aren't up to snuff. Thanks! Larry :cool:

:cool: Rose the pics are terrific. It looks like you had a great time, lots of fun and sun and relaxation. :cool:

We did have a good time, one of the best in recent memory. Yes, RCI's food quality has dropped considerably in the last few years and it's quite disappointing to us as we love to travel with them. I don't go for the food so I'm OK with it most of the time. I didn't starve but it's not how it used to be. I guess the only way to get excellent food is to cruise the upscale lines but I can't afford them nor would I want to miss out on the fun I have on RCI.

I've done both the itineraries and they are both great. Are you talking about the Barbados run???? I would love to do it again for sure but it is a tiring itinerary if you try to do something in each port. I didn't get to enjoy St. Lucia as we were just wiped out by then. I love the Aruba run also. Either is a terrific itinerary.

:cool: What I like are the ports and the fact we have only one sea day which actually my wife would like the best. Yes, we may get a bit tired too but in port we can always stay on the ship. :cool:

The cruise starts in San Juan with stops in St. Lucia, Antigua, St. Maarten, Barbados and St. Thomas. :cool:
