From what I have read and heard, Disney is far and away the best family cruise line. Most of the others have childrens programs that are really good. Carnival has the most kids. Holland probably has the least. I spent two hours in line at the Vatican museum speaking to the kids program director from our ship. It was the last cruise on her contract and she spoke highly of the program. She was however looking forward to getting back to Canada after 8 months or so in Europe. It was Celebrity's Millinium. I toured that part of the ship and it seemed really nice. From what I learned, the slightly higher end lines attract families whose kids have a modicum of sophistication. They have travelled some and can behave in a restaraunt. They don't control their parents with whining.
I can not say enough good things about Celebrity. I have enjoyed cruising with them in Europe, the Caribbean, and Alaska. The decor, service, and food are all top-notch. (Well, they are not Crystal or Silverseas, but who wants to pay that much?)
