Review summary

Overall a very good experience. The only reason for not giving five stars is that the safety briefing in the conducted had the guests and personnel standing for about 40 minutes waiting with 2 minutes of safety instructions. This is not very good as the attention is zero after such a long wait. Service, food was very good.

lol.....im sorry I find this post funny. MOST people find the muster part of cruise to be the most annoying. I think id give every cruise 1 star if I included the muster as "part of the cruise". its neccessary for everyones safety, but I always dread it. its always standing waiting, cant hear/too many people acting up, technical difficulties etc. muster has NEVER run smooth on any of my past cruises.

Can't say for sure, but often its guests who for whatever reason do not show up for the briefing. The crew is required to go find the missing guests put them in the correct muster points or just account for them.This will cause delays. It often not the ships fault. The briefings are required by law and requires all passengers attendance, so if some are late, lost, etc it causes delays. However, i agree, the long wait times especially in intense summer heat, quickly saps the old attention span.
