Has anyone been back on the Fantasy or Dream after having sailed on the Wish? How did it feel being back compared to the Wish? I really like the newness and change of the Wish especially the Concierge and am concerned when we get on the Fantasy in 7 weeks we might feel we are missing the Wish.
 
We're not concierge but I can tell you in two weeks when we're back on the Dream. I'm excited to get back on her and enjoy Satellite Falls and the other adult areas of the ship! I think it really depends on what you look for in a cruise and individual tastes.
 
We got off the Wish on Friday 9/16, drove straight to Miami and were in the cruise terminal before they had even called boarding group 1 (we were boarding group 3). I'd say we made it onboard the Dream around 4 hours after getting off the Wish.

Overall we enjoyed the Wish and wouldn't hesitate to book the Wish again (though there were a few things we really were not fans of). We're Platinum and I'd say that we were a actually a little relieved to be back on one of the older ships. The familiarity was comforting. We knew exactly where to find things and had a good feel for what time we needed to show up for things. Both were pretty full, but there seemed to be a bit more chaos around the Wish. The passengers were trying to get their bearings, and most of the crew seemed to be pretty high strung.

It was cool to be able to experience the Dream with the Wish so fresh in our minds, and we were ticking things off "Better on the Wish" here, "Better on the Dream" there. But we never felt like the Dream was especially worn out compared to the Wish. Oh, except the couch in our stateroom. That sucker would make a 1972 pinto with 3 bald tires and one brown door seem shiny and new by comparison.

We decided that we'd probably wait for the "inaugural" premium to fade before booking the Wish again, but I don't think we will feel like we're really missing out by booking a Dream Class ship (or even a Magic Class) over a Triton Class.
 
The whole time on the wish I kept thinking how happy I was that we had a cruise booked for the fantasy for October, and the dream December. Of course the wish is beautiful and a good ship but for what my husband and I enjoy I’d be hesitant to go on the wish for awhile again.
 

Was on the Wish MV and going on the Magic in 17 days....looking forward to being back on the Magic. Wish was very nice but I like the other ships better. Not sailing Concierge but don't think I'll miss the Wish....well maybe the Laundry Room LOL...that was awesome!!
