Review summary

This is a great ship to travel on.  We always come away pleased with it.  Thanks for stopping "Chicago".  It was terrible.  However the musical "Tell Me on a Sunday" was not a good replacement.  The lady who sang had a beautiful voice and would have served us well by giving us a concert rather than the boring musical.  Food service and food in the restaurant was great.  With the increased no. of passengers (6200?), the Windjammer was clogged most of the time during meals.

It is a great ship

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Clean, well done. Looks like some little amenities have disappeared. Chocolates on bed, fruit, memo pad and pen, but that did not take away from a nice cabin. Those were just good memories of the past. I think it would be good to offer one bottle of water each day free.

Ship tip

Our waiter each evening gave us great advice on where to find breakfast and lunch other than the Windjammer. It worked out very well.
