Review summary
This ship is amazing with more than enough to see and do. However, we were hard pressed to find someone to break out a smile. The crew look too tired to smile, sadly. It really took away from our experience. There are so many awesome people working their but it appears they are working too hard. They just didn't seem fresh!
The comedians were hilarious. We really enjoyed the Tenors show but didn't appreciate the patriotic message (save it for when you in America) - just didn't think it was appropriate for an international audience.
I'd would to cruise on this boat again but only with a well rested crew. I know they have it in them!

Ship tip
Gratuity is automatically added to the bill which I disagree with since the act of gratuity (tipping) is to show appreciation for exceptional service, which is not what you always get. It should be a incentive not a given.

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida
