This will be our first cruise on Royal Caribbean, the previous cruises were on Carnival. We encountered so many issues with Carnival, from poor staff, to double billing us (no kidding, and it took 8 months to fix), and deception (sold false art work to us, took 6 months for a refund on that one) and tardy leaving port so we missed our excursion in Nassua. We will never travel Carnival again. They are a party ship (nothing wrong with that) but my wife and I are more into relaxation and entertainment. From friends that have been on RC cruises, they say RC is the best in the biz.

Cozumel is good for the ruins, I believe, but we just poked around the harbor. In Jamaica, do either the water falls or the rafting. I think Labadee is a private island, or at least a private beach owned by RC. You can do parasailing, but I don't recall much else to do (this was 5 years ago, though).
This will be my 3rd time to Cozumel, and they have the swim with the dolphins excursion which was a highlight of my life, not just the vacation. It was GREAT! The dolphins come up to you and kiss you, and shake your hand, then they allow you to grab their fins and will swim you out into the ocean and take you back. It was great. I will try to do the sting ray city, and feed the rays and such.
The rafting sounds good in Jamaica.
Yeah, Labadee is their privately owned island outside of Haiti. I have no clue about it at this point.

So how many cruises have all of you guys been on? What are the highlights?
