Allure of the Seas
Sail date: July 23, 2017
Great ship, great experience, great vacation
As with most cruises, up-selling is rampant. From tchotchkes to overpriced jewelry to art, they are constantly bombarding the passengers trying to get them to spend more money. Just ignore it and after a day or so, it will just fade in to the background. Other than that, the ship, staff and ports of call are wonderful. The excursions booked through Royal Caribbean, while maybe more expensive, were well worth the cost for the peace of mind knowing that if something wen't wrong the ship wouldn't leave without us. We never at a loss for things to do regardless of whether they were indoors or outdoors. There were a lot of people - 6,000+. If that doesn't bother you, don't hesitate to book on this ship.
