[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 244854, member: 9789"] Scratch, It depends on what you are looking for. Carnival is considered a party line...so you get the party animals. There is nothing wrong with that if that is what you like. It is like giong to Vegas. There are hotels that cater to the younger crowd like the Palms and there are those that cater to privacy and quiet and luxury like the 4 Seasons. I have done 8 cruises on the Princess line ranging over a period of 15 years. I am extremely happy with the service, food and staff. Each cruise has been consistently better. The line was bought by Carnival and has remained the same. Nothing has been compromised. I highly recommend the Princess Line you will not be disappointed. Now - be careful of hurricane season....It starts around June. Last year a Princess Ship got caught between two hurricanes and missed every port because of weather. Believe it or not...I have been told by an officer of the bridge that the safest place to be in a hurricane is on a cruise ship. They will avoid the weather at all costs. I just made a post on "Life after UPS" on a Med Cruise I just finished. it was far better than the two Carribean Cruises i took. The Panama Canal cruise is also a fantastic cruise. My wife and I just celebrated our 35 anniversary in August, and she wanted to go to the Med. We waited a month until the weather was milder and just came back Monday.
