Disembarked from the Breeze yesterday. Crew and staff are knocking themselves out trying to please guests but they are having staffing issues having experienced staff available for a multitude of reasons. We have been on the Breeze 7 times since they started back and this has been the most difficult cruise of all. The B2B over New Years was fantastic but many of the experienced crew rotated off. We have gotten to know many crew members very well and keep in touch with them outside of cruising. Please be patient and understanding. It will take many months to return to any semblance of normalcy.

Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations. Surprised about the crew comments. Hope you find a cruise line that fits your needs… try Virgin.

Not enough bars?? I’ve been on the Breeze. I don’t understand! 😳 I love this ship and will be sailing in her in 23 days! Sorry for your experience.

Thanks for the review. A crowded ship means cruising is getting back to normal, which is a good thing for the industry.

Is this a real review? I would expect a busy ship, especially bars for superbowl. Combine that with cruising post covid ramping up. Sorry you were so disappointed, I just can't imagine it being as blah as you describe. I don't EVER take a book when I cruise.

Fun time, but MDR quality has really dropped off a cliff
