Review summary

Weird ship design. Food was horrible. Ports of call or average. Not enough to do on the ship at sea days. Nightly shows were awful except one comedian. Prizes given out for winning activities were very cheap. They give out markers and pens. What a joke!!

You sound like somebody shot your dog right before the cruise and you went just already hating everything. Lighten up!! You paid enough money for it.

I agree with you all on this. I've done four cruises, my 5th will be on this ship next year, and I am super excited! Bottom line, your VACATION is what you make it, so if you had such a sour time, then you have to blame you. Even if you didn't want to do certain things, you could just simply stretch out on a deck chair or in your room and nap, read, or watch t.v. or something, geeze!!!!

I'm so looking forward to my cruise in 33 days. Why because I won't be at work and I will be with my family.

I just got off ship this morning and it was an amazing 10 days. Entertainment, service, food everything was great...and I didn’t find it overly crowded at all. I’ve been on 8 cruises...never had a bad one yet. Maybe I’m just easy to please, who knows?

Did you say prizes were given out for winning or whining.

If you think that that ship had nothing to do, that ship had some of the most things to do. I wouldn't cruise again if I where you.

‘Weird ship design’?? As in what? It had lifeboats? It had staterooms? Bars? Restaurants? iFly? North Star? Bionic Bar? Theatre? Not really sure what you are getting at seeing as this was your first cruise? 🧐🧐

Well most people would be intelligent enough to research the ports of call BEFORE booking the cruise. I guess you’re just not one of those people. 🤔

I’ve YouTubed everything before I even go on any type of vacation and I look up reviews. From what I have seen, I can’t wait to go on this cruise to eat, relax, and do what the ship offers. Cruises are made for relaxation. Just sitting your butt down in from of the pool is all I want with a nice drink in my hand 😎🍹. If your looking for more to do perhaps you should take a flight and be more in control of your vacation

Sounds like a little research before you went would have been helpful. The port issue is an easy one, choose a cruise that goes somewhere you are interested in seeing.
