Go with the itinerary you most prefer. You'll enjoy cruising on either ship...

Basically, you have to choose based on the itinerary. The Regal will take about 2 1/2 days to reach the tropics and the rest of the cruise will be in warm weather. October in the Caribbean is hurricane season. The CA Coastal visits some nice ports, but will not be a tropic weather cruise. You should enjoy either ship.

We would choose the cruise based on the itinerary you would enjoy the most. Both ships we have cruised on and would do so again.

No problem with either ship ....

BUT had rather do 10 days than 7. :rolleyes:

The 10 day cruise on the Regal, a newer ship, is way better than 7 day cruise on the Ruby any day. There are a lot of differences between the ships so look at the deck plans. One suggestion for either ship is not to get a stateroom under the lido deck public areas. Be aware that August to October is the height of hurricane season with the majority of storms happening in those three months.

Regal is a much nicer ship.

Is this true? I hope so as my parents picked Regal over another cruise line ship remembering how great Caribbean princess was, and I am getting mixed reviews.

We like the Regal and enjoy it for more days.

Go for the 10 days you will love the Regal.

Personally, I'd do the Ruby, but the Promenade deck and dance floors are very important to me.

We have avoided the larger ships. I know the new ships are beautiful but I think the Grand is just about the right size. However, we stepped up to the larger Crown because of the early April date. It's just a matter of taste but for us, the smaller the better.
