Review summary

Love the ship as it is the most fun.  Blue Planet is our favorite cruise ship show and we could see it again and again.  Johnny Rockets and Chops Grille are our favorite dinner restaurants.  We go to all the 3D movies while at sea and the 70's party is always a good time.

 

Only one major complaint and it has happened to us twice.  We made major purchases onboard the ship (art one time and jewelry the next).  These are not subject to duty tax as they are made in the US and returned to the US.  But both times we were pulled out of the departure line as a "POI" and treated like criminals without an explanation.  US purchases should be noted on the Sea Pass card.  Because of this, we will never make a major purchase on RC
I again.

This is the first time we never saw our room attendant and although I left a note requesting ice, we did not receive it.

I also did not like Blue Plant. The water and ice shows are far better.

Sorry to hear about your problems with CBP. That is strange. Glad to hear you enjoy the ship so much, you keep coming back! I enjoyed Blue planet. It is different but fun nonetheless.

We thought blue planet sucked! The acrobatics and dancing was great but the music was weird. I get it it's songs about the planet and stuff but it was still weird.

Leaving tomorrow can't hardly wait will definitely see Blue Planet bought tickets on line thanks for the advice on buying big ticket items
