As a HAL fan sad to see them not mentioned anywhere I could find. CEL did well however so my other favorite was fairly well represented.

Interesting to browse but it wouldn't sway my decision one way or another. Thanks for sharing.

As much as I may like CC, I still feel "uncomfortable" about so many awards going to members of the Royal Caribbean family. Even since the Royal Champions debacle of a couple of years ago, it just seems, off to me somehow.

I feel the same about any award that Carnival Corp. gets from Porthole Magazine, since Porthole's publisher worked for CCL for many years.

Did you look at the results by mid-sized ships?

It is a lot like tripadvisor. Not many people ranking the luxury liners. I mean really putting Crystal's cuisine just one step above the Pacific Princess?

You must be joking or never have traveled at any other level.

It makes me interested in experiencing Oasis or Allure where the ship is the destination.

I agree. I cruise with Seabourn but am intrigued to see the ship from the inside. Since I never get off the boat in the Caribbean, it could work. But I want a concierge/butler level suite.
