Review summary

Just didn’t enjoy this cruise as much as I normally do. I was on the Legend last year and had a much better experience The customer service was not as good overall

Embarkation

3 out of 5

The parking experience for embarking was really, really slow. I have traveled from this port many times and have never experienced such a long wait. One of the problems is that they only had 2 cashiers handling the parking. Once we were parked, everything else went along smoothly and fast.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

This time, the food was not that good. Everything seemed under seasoned. However, the food in the steakhouse was good and I had the opportunity to go there twice.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

4 out of 5

First time that I was unable to go to a comedy show a couple of times. The lounge for the comedy show is entirely too small for the demand. Even when I thought I was getting there early enough, it was too late. I can’t help but wonder why the main theater wasn’t used particularly when it was obvious that the theater was available

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

I had several negative “firsts” on this cruise. This was the first time that I had a really bad cabin attendant. Without going into detail, let’s just say he didn’t seem committed to providing good service at all. Our neighbors felt the same way.
