Review summary

Amazingly smooth cruise while watching hurricanes and storms brewing in the Atlantic. Captain Ante adjusted the course back to Tampa, avoiding all of the storms. Some smooth rocking for a day or so, but otherwise very calm. RC was able to broadcast the Weather Channel after leaving the Azores, which I’m sure calmed a lot of nerves. (mine!) Great cruise director, but few evening activities but that is probably based on the age of many of the travelers. Dining room staff was awesome and by far, the best we have ever had.

You were smack in the middle of a very busy storm time. They did a great job of keeping you safe!
