I don't cruise in August anymore because of the heat, it was disrespectful to me too. I won't do it anymore.

I’m sorry you have such a bad experience on the ship. I was on her and June and once I figured out the elevators and how they worked lol I was good to go. I didn’t really have any issues with the heat, everywhere felt pretty good. I also turn the air down in my cabin because it was too cold.

It is one of the hottest ships I've been on... elevators were like walking into a sauna... not sure why they can't figure it out... some staff said they cut the air to employee cabins to try and get more air to common areas🤷‍♀️

I was on this ship in august Buffett dining in places were hot but some places you could feel the air con everywhere else was fine, cabin air con was brilliant. Dining room was fine too. Everything was perfect couldn’t fault a thing. Sorry you were not happy.
