We are considering a Mediterranean cruise to Barcelona, parts of Italy and Greece on Celebrity that goes from 10/29-11/14. There is a cost-savings versus the prior cruise that leaves 10/5.

Can anyone share if taking the later cruise might have significantly different weather/more rain? I know that the time changes also the last week of October so not sure if that will have an impact.

Also, if anyone has comments on the ship Millenium that would be great.

All comments are appreciated!

You might get a better response if you check out www.cruisecritic.com . Personally, I just think weather is pretty unpredictable. You can check out average weather for each port of call on www.weather.com .

I'm taking a Celebrity cruise this summer myself, and am real excited to do so!

I did a cruise in November 2000 that went to Greece, Turkey, Cyprus and Egypt. We had fantastic weather every day, but of course, that's never a guarantee at any time of year. Here's another site for weather stats:

P_M, what company was your cruise with? It sounds like a great itinerary.

I would prefer November over October for the raining. October uses to be much more rainy here at the Mediterranean. Though, November uses to be colder, not freezing, but if there's no sunny days..it could be uncomfortable at the sea. But..who knows ? Weather keeps behaving a bit strange these days..
