Anyone go on a cruise yet this winter...??

Went on Navigator of the Sea in December. I think in terms of the hardware itself, the Voyager class is very hard to beat.

To get the most discount for cruising, you either have to book very early or book very late (ie within 2-3 weeks of departure). And if you're booking last minute, don't be afraid to book the "run of ship" category. I booked this category on my last cruise, and I was given the highest grade inside cabin (Inside Promenade) on the ship. Which translate to an approx 65% saving.

An inside room with a window...who would've thought it was possible?

I love Voyager class ships. I just got back 2 weeks ago from RCI Adventure of the Seas out of San Juan. Ports of call: Aruba, Curacao, St Maarten and St. Thomas. Excellent itinery. Excellent weather. Excellent ship in terms of wear and tear (it is a 3.5 yr old ship), food was better than on Mariner and staff was excellent.

Cruising history: Adventure of the Seas (02/05), Mariner of the Seas (02/04), Grand Princess (03/03), Galaxy (11/99), Sun Princess (10/96) and loved them ALL.

The only problem with this type of room is you'll have to keep reminding yourself to keep the curtain close when you change. Else you'll be giving everyone a free show.

Actually, I think I enjoy that room more than an outside cabin without balcony. The reason is you don't see anything except the sea with an outside cabin. Whereas if you are in one of these inside prommenade room, there are constant changes to the scenery as there are always people walking back and forth.
