Review summary

This was my first 7-day cruise. I usually cruise for 5 days and am left feeling like I could go another day or two...well...now that I've done it, I will stick with 5. Not that this was a bad cruise, I actually enjoyed myself and the ports visited. It was just too long for my tastes. Towards the end, I felt like entertainment/activities started to repeat themselves and I wasn't left with many options.

I agree with you. I was a first-time cruiser and was also on Glory the same week. By about Thursday I was done. :)

Oh, the longer the better for me! I also could live on a cruise ship! We have to travel too far to cruise for less than 7 nights. Gotta make it worth the airfare!

I prefer cruises that are at least nine days. For my wife and myself the longer the better.

I wouldn't unpack for less than 7 days. We hate the last night when they leave the luggage tags.

I find 9 to be perfect. When we tried 12 they turned it into 14 days & we found that to be a little long. Still willing to try 12, but 7 is too short.
