Marc, website pricing for verandahs on these two cruises is identical, except Radisson's port charges have to be added, and Silversea's single supplement is less, particularly for Vista cabins. Airfare is also a lot more expensive to Aruba than to Ft. Lauderdale, but this is not a problem for the ladies. I think they made a great decision to move over. They get an extra day of cruising, and a much better itinerary.
