Ship tip

The one thing I was most disappointed about was not being able to make my decision on Gratuity, In my opinion I think gratuity is way over rated. I Would rather pay a higher Price for my boarding pass so you can pay your staff better than the surprise of the decision being made for me without a choice on my final bill. IT has been a while since I took a cruise but have never had that just billed to me on other cruise lines. I also must state it is not that I wouldn't of tipped any less or possibly more it is just the principle of gratuity should be left to the individual and how they feel services were provided to them.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

Very easy access for my needs with a lot of local stuff to do

Catalina Island, California

5 out of 5
First time there enjoyed taking in surroundings while shopping at the shops but your activity director was very misleading on what there is to do there other than the excursions they were promoting

Ensenada, Mexico
