Princess, Celebrity, or NCL?
For my next cruise, I am considering Princess, Celebrity, or NCL.
I am very familiar with Princess but have never cruised on the other two. The line I really like is Crystal, but they don't have any itineraries I am interested in on the dates I want to cruise. My only options for those dates are the three lines mentioned above and Carnival. I don't think that a "fun ship" is a good option for an old fuddy duddy. I like the Princess ships and service but think their food is only mediocre. Although I was very pleased with the Sterling Steakhouse. How would you compare Princess, Celebrity, and NCL for cabins, public areas, entertainment, activities, and food? I am willing to pay slightly more for the extra cost restaurants. |

I haven't sailed YET on Princess (that changes this coming Saturday) but I've sailed three times on Celebrity and once on NCL. I really like the Dawn, but I'm not particularly crazy about "Freestyle Dining." Tried it once but I prefer "Traditional Dining." What's nice about Princess is that they seem to offer you a choice. And actually, just because you have a set seating time doesn't mean you HAVE to take it! The three Celebrity ships all had alternatives so its not like if you missed your seating you starved. Celebrity by far had the BEST food. Not the NCL was bad... it just wasn't as good as Celebrity. I really can't compare cabins as I had a mini-suite on the Dawn, but just standard outside cabins (no balcony) on the three Celebrity ships (since the Dawn leaves out of Manhattan I used the money I saved on airfare to get a nicer room instead). So far my favorite ship is the Celebrity Millennium (which I took to the Eastern Caribbean). I'm looking forward to the Sapphire Princess next week. -- Jaime A.
