For anyone who may have been onboard Sun,Dawn,Sea and Ocean Princess they all seemed the same right?Well what would people think of the Oceana and Adonia compared to Sun and Dawn Princess?Here is Adonia & Oceana

and here is the Dawn Princess

What do you think about the inside of Sun compared to going with Oceana,what are the major different things that are noticed.Also,you probably could call them the Sun class(Sun and Dawn) and Oceana class(Oceana and Adonia) because they are different lines and the Sun and Dawn dont have inclosed bridge wings and Adonia and Oceana do.What do you think about the change of color and the interior changes if there are any.I think Oceana and Adonia are an improvement in color.as Sea and Ocean Princess they were white(plain) with green waterline and blue and white logo.

With yellow funnel and red waterline it adds more color and the appearance is different with a darker funnel.

I say AN IMPROVEMENT!I still like Sun and Dawn though.Its one of the best classes by PRINCESS.

What do you think????

A few years ago I was aboard Dawn Princess and while in Acapulco Sea Princess was birthed right behind her- stern to stern.

I was permitted aboard Sea Princess (now Adonia) to see the differences between her and Dawn Princess. The ships are virtually identical- the only difference I saw was the colors used in some rooms. Even the carpet patterns and furnature are the same.

As far as external appearance. I've never liked the funnel design of these ships... it is difficult to clearly see the Sea Witch logo on the slatted funnel, and painted yellow it just looks dirty from a distance. I would have preferred it if P&O had either given them a new funnel (like Aurora and Oriana) of if they had put on solid sides to the existing shape.
