Our Caribbean cruise in January on silverseas was less per diem than a similar Radisson cruise. When it works i guess it works. If you consider all inclusive an upgrade of class, well then they are. We really did like that, no doubt, and would go again in a minute for that reason alone. I would say all else is similar, also we asked for and got caviar at no cost. I'm not sure if that was an oversight or not. it really was fabulous, but not a whole lot else stands out. i think once you get to the level of Radisson, it's hard to raise the bar in huge increments.

Cindy, we aren't by any means caviar connoisseurs, but whenever they have had it, I don't remember there ever being a charge. We never ordered it seperately, but I can't imagine that they would charge for it considering the all inclusive nature of SS. Also a big plus is all drinks included throughout the ship. We don't drink that much, but if I want a drink out on deck or while watching a show, or in the lounge, I love just being able to order it and not sign for anything.
