Very true, Lawrence. But if Radisson can't find a way to do it profitably, we all will just have to "vote with our wallets" and take Silversea up on it. I have been looking for an attractively priced Silversea "special" at a time when I can go (not December)and run into the problem that on all their ships I have to go at least one upgrade to get a balcony --- and I still loose a little squeare footage compared with Mariner/Navigator/Voyager base suites. I'm not shopping Silversea out of any anger or problem with Radisson, but just the natural desire for vatiety.

Thanks,
Richard :) :) :)
