Ashley24 Posted April 25, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 25, 2004 Sovereign and Majesty look like they take shorter cruises out of Florida. Between those two ships, which one is better and why? I have two children, 6 and 9. Are there other RCCL ships that also take shorter cruises from other ports? Are these shorter cruises worth it? Is there a TA that discounts these cruises the best?

frank926 Posted April 25, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 25, 2004 The VOS is starting this season out of NJ it's first cruise is May 15. If you have not seen NY this is a wonderful time to do a Pre, Post in the "Big Apple". The world is like a book if you do not travel you only read one page.

teachkind1 Posted April 25, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I have been on the Sovereign 4 times and really love the ship. Granted it is older and is not has sparkling and big has the new ships sailing but we have always had a wonderful time when cruising on her. I have not been on the Majesty but usually if you sail with RCCL, you can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC1 Posted April 25, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2004 [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif[/img] Give me any ship, I want to cruise! : Ask yourself why a short cruise. Is it time, $$, or location. You can sometimes do a 4 day cruise (better) for about the same cost. We did a last minute 3 day on the Majesty (May 2003). It was a great deal, so the drive to Miami was worth it! We did the Sovereign (7 days 1994, 3 days 2001)& hope to do another 3 day Oct/Nov this year. The Soverign because time, location, $, and Mother-in-law may go. I HEARD THAT SOVEREIGN IS GOING IN FOR DRYDOCK IN DECEMBER. But I still want the SOVEREIGN! Happy cruising, your children will love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebbieal Posted April 25, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 25, 2004 The Enchantment also does 4 or 5 nighters out of Ft Lauderdale. I have done both the Enchantment and the Majesty, both ships are maintained very well, and the crew on both were fabulous! I would do either one again in a heartbeat!!
