Dawn vs Spirit

[LFM]

We did a 10 day on the Spirit last February and loved everthing about the ship. How does it differ from the Dawn? We're thinking of going again the last January or early February.

I did both, the Dawn in December 2003 and Spirit last month.

I enjoyed the Dawn very much but when I experienced the Spirit, I loved it even more (many things might have change on the Dawn since 2003 though).

The Dawn has 2 free speciality restaurants and Spirit has only one (that's a good point for the Dawn). Crew was nicer on the Spirit but the crew changes very often, the Dawn may have better crew now.

If I were you, I wouldn't worry about which ship of the two you will be on, take the itinerary, date and price that work best for you.

Both ships are great!
