IVE BEEN ON SEVERAL CRUISE LINES AND ACTUALLY COMPLAINED ABOUT ALL OF THEM AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER. BUT I HAVE TO SAY CARNIVAL STILL PROVIDES THE MOST BANG FOR THE BUCK$$$. . AFTER ABOUT A DOZEN CRUISES WE WOULD RECOMMEND CARNIVAL, ALWAYS SOMETHING GOING ON AND FOOD AVAIL, GREAT SHOWS. THE EXCURSIONS STILL SEEM TO COSTLY BUT ITS LIKE THAT ON ALL CRUISE LINES. THIS SPRING WE CRUISE EUROPE ON NCL. WONT GO BACK THERE. THEN IN SEPT A 4 DAY CRUISE ON RCL, WONT GO BACK. THE FIRST CRUISE IS ALWAYS THE BEST BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THINGS ARE LACKING ON EACH ADDITIONAL CRUISE YOU GO ON. BEST THING TO DO IS KEEP A OPEN MIND AND REMEMBER TO GOOD PARTS. REMEMBER YOU ALREADY SPENT THE MONEY, SO DONT MAKE IT BAD.
