Just returned from a cruise to New Caledonia & Vanuatu - first time on Carnival. Have been on Radiance twice in 2014. Both are similar sizes so I decided to try to help anyone trying to decide. Would I go on either again - definitely. One caveat - It's been over 12 months since our last RCI cruise, and I am referring to our experiences from then.
Both are similar sizes - about 2,000 passengers.
Demographics - We are in our 50's and were travelling with teenagers on both lines, so have a perspective from two different angles.
Truly beautiful spot. Have a swim. relax on the beach
