Other reviews of this sailing

It was an issue with the odor of cigarette smell in my cabin from night one. They compensated us with a dinner at one of the specialty restaurants. However, I thought that that was mediocre for the fact that I was vomiting and nauseous the entire cruise!

It was a great trip on this beautiful new ship!

For a first time cruise this was amazing. So much fun. The down side was the last day- being a new ship the scedual was not correct; be aware that all the pools and hottubs closed at 9:30 pm not 12 midnight like advertised.
