Review summary
I was disappointed with the food choices and quality. We found the entertainment schedule a little confusing and didn't coincide with our dinner seating time. In the past the entertainment was after the dinner times. Having to obtain tickets was also disappointing and stressful, but was able to see all the shows. The shows are usually the most fun of the trip, so trying to schedule tickets and times around the meal too away from the enjoyment of the cruise. Many of the activities had a charge, like to see the galley. Too many upcharges. The staff was great and we enjoyed central park with the birds chirping. One last comment. They don't provide an easy access to fill water bottles, they want to buy their soda package instead.
