Review summary

We were back to back and on this first leg had our Air Pods stolen. Then my husband fell down the stairs. The crew were so fast to respond and the ships doctor and nurse came immediately and he was treated in the infirmary. They changed his dressing every other day or every day depending on the doctors orders. I was very impressed. Everyone was so pleasant and made us feel comfortable with the entire process.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
The ship was late getting into port due to fog. Even after arriving 2 hours later than originally scheduled we still had to stand outside in the hot sun with our luggage.
