Review summary

Delayed 10 hours to get on ship, excursions were so much fun. Ship was always being cleaned

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Was delayed at Tampa airport for 10 hours due to coast guard not allowing inbound ships to arrive In port due to Fog. Once we left airport, embarking was fairly smooth

Food was Hot, fresh and flavorable. Only issue was this ship does not have the soda machines so if you buy drink package, your options are very limited
