I just returned from my 8th cruise aboard Majesty of The Seas (7/29  8/2) and I still love this ship. If you are a seasoned cruiser whose last voyage was an around-the-world trip in the Royal Suite of the 'Gargantuan of the Seas' and are planning to book an inside cabin on deck 2 of the Majesty expecting a similar experience then you will surely be disappointed. However that is not a fair comparison to make. I have sailed once on Voyager OTS and twice on Adventure OTS and I still enjoy sailing on Majesty.

While Majesty is small by comparison to the rest of RCI's fleet, she is not a small ship. RCI seems to think bigger is better but I disagree. A fair comparison would be to compare Majesty with the two other ships that sail from Miami on 3 and 4 night cruises since those are really the choices you have.

All three ships, RCI's Majesty, NCL's Sky and Carnival's Imagination are roughly the same size. I have never sailed on Sky so I cannot compare it, but in November I sailed on Imagination and I still prefer Majesty. I found the decor on Imagination to be dark, especially in the Horizon dining room, which is the equivalent of the Windjammer on Majesty, and in the multi deck atrium. I also prefer the public rooms of the Majesty to those on Imagination. The open deck above the pool on Imagination is lined with lifeboats so the view of the ocean is blocked. On Majesty the view of the ocean from the deck above the pool is unobstructed. Read more
