Review for a Pacific Coastal Cruise on Jewel of the Seas

We were accustomed to Celebrity on several recent cruises but remembered nice ones that had been taken with other 4 RCCL ships.
This time because of convenient dates we decided to take this cruise and were not happy we had done so.It started at embarkation in San Diego when our passports were kept by the attendant at check-in with the information that they would be returned aboard. Little did ...

It was an interesting trip. We flew into San Diego from Houston. We had booked our pre-cruise room at the Hilton San Diego Bay Hotel. We arrived a little bit after 12:00 pm. The Hotel looked nice from the outside. The lobby was spacious. The location was great. It was a short walk over the pedestrian bridge from PETCO Ball park. It was a short cab ride to the Cruise terminal. The Gas Light ...

The following are some experiences and observations about our 5/16 California repositioning cruise on the Jewel of the Seas - sailing out of San Diego. We chose this cruise specifically for the itinerary, but we are also big fans of the RCL Radiance class ship.
San Diego is a great departure port; taxi fares to almost anywhere in San Diego proper are very reasonable and cabs are easy to find. ...

This was my 6th cruise, and first on RCCL. I was traveling with my Mother. We have cruised together several times. This cruise went to Catalina Island, San Francisco (with overnight), Victoria, and ended in Vancouver.
Embarkation: We arrived at the pier rather late, so there was zero wait for embarkation. Luggage was also delivered well before dinner on departure day. We did find the muster ...

This was our first cruise on RC and only our second cruise overall. We cruised from San Diego to Vancouver, BC, though we disembarked in Victoria to visit family. When we entered the cruise embarkation area, we were whisked around the long line-up to a counter where our check-in occurred quickly and efficiently. I presume that was because we were booked in a junior suite, but, regardless, it ...

When a company tries to nickel and dime their customers, they are destroying customer relations. And that is what Royal Caribbean has done for me on this my last cruise, and very certainly my last cruise with RC for some time.
Pros:
1. Great itinerary. The overnight in San Francisco was great!
2. The people. Most of the staff were great people. Even if they weren't helpful, they still ...

Review for a Alaska Cruise on Radiance of the Seas

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s
We chose the repositioning cruise on the Radiance for our first look at Alaska. It was a wonderful trip with much warmer weather than we were warned to expect--very little rain, many sunny days. We inched very slowly toward Hubbard Glacier because of all the ice in the water and watched amazing calving activity such as the crew said they had never seen. The Radiance is a beautiful, comfortable ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s
We had an awesome vacation! It was so much fun. Weather was a delight. I had read a lot on line about the weather in Alaska, and it said to be prepared for it to rain at any time. I don't think we saw a drop of rain the entire time. Just gorgeous!! As background, our group included 2 couples in our late 40's, early 50's. My DH and I had been on 5 Carnival cruises previously, but this was our first ...

Last October we criused the Radiance to Hawaai; that was our all time favorite cruise out of 30 cruised. When we returned home I plugged in the Radiance on RCCL website and found the May 11th cruise to Alaska at a good price and booked it. Now this Alaska cruise was great too. The staff, crew, and other passengers are all happy and nice which makes the difference. Our statis of 25 ...
