Review summary
The boat is in new; it's design, artistic selection, and facilities are top notch (except the SLOW elevators)!
The crew were great/friendly - certainly above norm compared to some other cruise lines. "Dynamic dinning" is not my thing and it could be hard to get a reservation (unless you are tech savvy and spend time planning prior to cruising). I hate the smoking section on deck 14, it affects half the path way (or the ship) on the deck where the main restaurant is located (and traffic is heavy).

Ship tip
"Wonderland" is great and "Silk" has a lot to improve (if one desires true Asian food). Expect long wait for everything (sitting down food service could be very slow at times). The free ice cream on deck 14 is the same as Country Buffet.
