Disembarkation

1 out of 5

This is the most unorganized chaos imaginable. Forced out of the stateroom by 8am when they turn off the AC. Then forced into a 2 hour plus Congo line on deck 3 after waiting 45 minutes for an elevator.

Nothing About This Trip Was Relaxing!!

Horrible. Cabin had no AC, food in Marketplace bad, two tiny pools for 3900 passengers, other than the comedians and the show FLICK entertainment was boring. Disembarkation is chaotic
