I was booked w/ Carnival on the Spirit for April 20, 2003 (12 days), about $4,500.00) however, I just saw that Royal Carribean has the Legend of the Seas from April 27 for (11days) $3,581.00, I know money should be an issue but I want to known what ship should I go on. Does anyone have any suggestions??? PLEASE!

This would be a no brainer for me as money is always an issue. I'd pick the cheaper of the two and consider the difference some extra spending money.

Are you basically doing the same ports? That could be my deciding point. I've never been on RCL, but have sailed on the Spirit, and I say do RCL. We had many problems on the Spirit.

carnival gave me matched price... on this trip so am going to stick to the spirit.
