Embarkation

5 out of 5

My wife uses a wheel chair, so we were sent around the main crowd and sent to a special low cou nter for our processing, which was very quick

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

all beverages except for tap water coffee, tea and fruit juices were an up charge. I found this very excessive. These beverages were readily available.there were package deals available, but again, they were excessive for the average senior citizen. Food choices were excellent,

Chop's Grille

2 out of 5

service was poor, Mt wife ordered a lobster, and the waiter failed to ask her how she wanted it prepared, when she informed him he went away. when her lobster arrived, the waiter informed her it was already prepared and she would have to except it as it was, not what she wanted.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

plenty to do, except we were promised there was a poker room on this ship, there is not. We like to play poker, specifically Holdem. there was a holdem game scheduled every night at 10PM, it only came about one night,

Casino Royale

2 out of 5

we were told there would be a poker room with cash games on board, there was not. this was a very big disapointment
