As this is old news... it does make one wonder about anyone who posts such good things about one particular cruiseline .... especially if they are comparing a competitor cruiseline in a negative light. While i will say that most reviews here, or advice given has been pretty much straightforward, there have been a few posts where some posters have bee na little more than emphatic about one cruiseline vs. another.... So how do you draw the line at loyalty, or corporate schill???? i guess that is why it is always best to read all posts to a thread and get a general concensus of advice , or recomendations. Above all, YOU... and only you are responsible for what advice you accept or reject... and YOU... and only you are responsible for your own cruising experience in the end...
