Sail Date: Jan 1970

We embarked THE RADIANCE OF THE SEAS in Vancouver BC on October 14, 2001 for the cruise to Honolulu. The Radiance has been reviewed here on Cruise Critic and other places numerous times so I will just hit the highlights of this trip for me. To put this in context, this is our 18th cruise, 2rd on RCI. We are of Medicare age. We had Cabin 7552 on Deck 7, Category E3.

This is probably the greatest ship we have been on. The Gas Turbine powered propulsion is vibration and smoke free (at least on our deck). Everything is highest tech. The ship is super clean and well maintained.

This was the best crew we have ever had. To a man/woman, they are friendly and helpful. Captain Kent Ringborn was the greatest. He started off at the Welcome Aboard show by singing in his rich, professional quality voice, "Welcome To My World". It was almost like a Hollywood Musical or TV show. Later he held a question and answer session and made frequent appearances all over the ship. The Cruise Director, Gordon Whatman was A#1. Very active and available, he had an engaging British personality, and a great Broadway style singing voice. We also had the best cabin attendant ever. Room seemed to be made up the moment we left the room and his talent in pillow arranging and towel sculpture was phenomenal.
