I wanna take a cruise which of these is better?


Travel Info
I plan on going on a cruise in may and i wanted to know which would be better. a cruise on Norwegian Spirit going to(New York, New York; Kings Wharf; Tortola, British Virgin Islands; St. Thomas; New York, New York) or royal Caribbean Liberty of the Seas (Miami, Florida; Labadee, Haiti; Montego Bay, Jamaica; Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands; Cozumel; Miami, Florida ) ... royal carribeans a 7 day cruise while norwegian is 8 days so im kinda leanign towards that. Any help would be great and if you've been on one of them or both let me know how it was. thanks

Travel Tips
I've never been on either of these ships in particular, but I have been on Norwegian's "Pride of Hawaii" and on Royal's "Majesty of the Seas". I can tell you I'll never take a Norwegian ship again. It was dirty, smelly and the service and food sucked... Do not take an NCL cruise. Look them up on Crusecritics.com, they have a horrible rating.

Royal, on the other hand, was awesome all the way around...

Edit: I just checked for you on cruise critic and the NCL ship is pretty well rated on there. It has an 89 out of 100. That's not too bad.

Liberty is a much larger ship and it's brand new. Launched in 2007. It's so new there are no reviews for it yet, but I'd take that one

Miami for sure alot warmer down there
I would say the Miami one simply because the Cayman islands are SO beautiful and lots of fun. Also Jamaica is also a very nice place to stop. so I would say that based on the stops on the cruise I think it would be worth it to take the train to Miami.
You already answered your own question but I think leaving from NY is a super idea. And I loved the BVI and St Thomas. You will have a great vacation because you won't have to fly and it's 8 days. Bring lots of money. Shopping in St Thomas is duty free. Make sure you go to the Baths on Virgin Gorda.

Enjoy your cruise.
