We did an 8 night Mediterranean on the Carnival Vista last summer. Ported out of Barcelona with 4 stops in Italy, then Marseille and then Palma de Mallorca. Loved the cruise and loved Carnival! Shocked the hell out of us that we would like them so much. Vista's sista, Horizon is launching next spring and doing a short European season before heading to NY in May 2018. The third Vista class sets sail in 2019, then CCL's new Mega ships will be seeing sail in 2020 and 2022. The Vista class ships are being built in Italy so they'll probably both be doing Mediterranean. The next class is being built in Finland so I'm hoping for Northern Europe cruises on them. Hope this helps.Have you taken a non-DCL cruise somewhere in Europe?
What was the cruise line?
What was your itinerary?
Did you enjoy it?
It appears that our next duty station will be Naval Base Rota (in Spain), so I am dreaming up all the cruises in Europe that we can take over the next 3-5 years.

When you get back can you write a review on the Baltic cruise. I'm thinking about doing this next year on the Breakaway. Also do you have kids?We took a NCL 12 night Med cruise in 2015 and will be on a NCL Baltic cruise in just under a month.

I'd like to know what they think of entourage if they go. The last time We sailed on Getaway they were in the 10-12 group and didn't care for it. My youngest will be almost 14 next summer.I have two sons, ages 15 & 16. They are the ones who asked to do another cruise this summer. We are sailing on The Getaway and will try to write up a review when we return.
We went on a 12 night cruise to Italy (Venice, Naples, Rome), Greece (Santorini, Mykonos, Rhodes, Athens, Olympia), Croatia (Split) & Turkey (Kusadasi) with Princess! We left out of Venice and returned to Rome, so we had time in both cities before and after. It was wonderful. It was our first cruise and very port intensive with only one day at sea. We were definitely some of the youngest in our early 30's (saw very few kids), but met some of the best people. The service, food, etc. was all wonderful. That was 7 years ago.
