MMOB Wants to Hear from You!
Have you and your husband/boyfriend/partner been doing an annual cruise for the last several (or umpteen) years? Have you and your wife/girlfriend/partner been going on more than two cruises a year and wouldn’t have it any other way? Are you a single traveler who must be on a cruise ship at least once a year?
If you answered YES to any of the above questions then please post a “yep”, “uh huh”, “you bet” or other answer in the affirmative as a comment.
As you may have heard, in our recent survey 74% of you travel on at least one cruise every year while 40% go on two or more annual cruises. Those numbers are impressive and we’d like to know a little more about the mind of a frequent cruise ship traveler.
I will contact you via MMOB Mail through your profile to ask you about your experiences which may be included in News & Expert Advice.
Thank you.
Michael Bradbury
MMOB Director of Marketing

My partner & I have been on both. They are both good. RSVP does seem to have a slightly older demographic and a bit fewer of the “party all night” crowd. But both give you space and time to relax if that is what you want to do. If you do everything, you will be very busy and will have to make some choices. But you don’t have to do anything if you don’t want to. We are in our 60′s and don’t dance more than a few minutes, but enjoy seeing all the costumes and hearing the music. We make sure we get a cabin where the music won’t bother us and are usually asleep by 1 AM or so, no matter what the party is that night. Everyone is so nice and so friendly, it is a pleasure. We choose whichever company has the ship we want to go on. Last year it was the Eurodam with RSVP. This year it is the Solstice with Atlantis. And next year it will probably be Allure of the Seas with Atlantis. We love them all.

I would agree with the above comments of darrell6t. We have done both.

My partner and I have been on two all gay cruises. The first Atlantis, the second RSVP. Both were good, but I prefered the RSVP best. It was a small sailing vessel out of Barbados. The ship only held 200 passengers, which I loved! We had a chance to meet a lot of people and really enjoyed the cruise. The Atlantis cruise had 2000+ passengers and was party central. Guess I’m showing my age here, but I prefer smaller and more intimate.

The Royal Clipper is a wonderful ship, but very different than the cruise ships. We took it with RSVP out of Cannes. It was wonderful, but the experience was nothing like the larger ships. We have never down the Caribbean on a small ship.
In some ways we like RSVP best too, but we are going with Atlantic this year and next because we like the ships better on Atlantis. And the ship is a big part of the experience. Both are so much fun.
