Like you, we love the Star and at least we get to do a "farewell" trip with it in the Caribbean. We have also booked on Ocean Village for next August, problem is that will be the first and last on that before they disappear to Australia! Hopefully another "casual" cruise line will start up for 2010 otherwise there will not be a lot of choice for us in the future.

Hi. My wife and I booked to go to the carribean on island star in March 2009 before we heard this was to be her last voyage with island cruises. I hope that all the facilities are all still available and that the crew will not have "wind down syndrome". Does any one have any thoughts or knowledge of what happens to her and the crew next ? Jon.
