Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food is above average. Good selection. Specialty restaurant (Chops) very good. Not a sushi fan & thought the up cost for Jamie’s (Italian) was not worth the menu offerings.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Trivia trivia trivia or pool pool pool. Not enough diversity. And the shows (The Gift & We Will Rock You) are the only offerings. How many times can you see it. Not many other choices if you choose not to go. Miss different entertainment every night. No live orchestra dancing music

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Wanted—a Bon Jovi Tribute— excellent. Comedians very good.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

The staff is always great. These employees do everything they can to make your cruise pleasant. Captain was very visible & had a great sense of humor

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Yes. Wish AC casinos would take a lesson on how to maintain their properties

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Large balcony. Comfortable bed. Pillows a bit too fluffy for me.

Spend time exploring the ship. Enjoy 270. Relax.
