Review summary

Onward isnt 100% ready yet, with doors falling of furniture, and a bit dirty and rusty. We had expected to book our next cruise while on board, but decided it best to pick another cruise line next time.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
I will include the time when leaving the airport to getting on the ship...best was very poor. We were left at the airport for fend for ourselves in getting a ride to Ravenna where the ship was. Azamara committed to busing passengers to the ship after the port was changed from Venice to Ravenna (3 hours) away
