Review summary

Food was mediocre, service good at times. Should have a more variety at shops and more hours. Possibly include more wait staff at larger tables. Weather was great. During the safety briefing, it could've been a shorter time.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Clive did an exceptional job at keeping room clean. Joel provided great service at 8:15 pm dinner (table 300) Destiny but could've used an additional person. At times I had to wait for food as everyone else at table was already served.

Ship tip

CASINO. Situation was dealer at Blackjack (Bonnie) accidentally turned over card which player did not request, card should have been placed at bottom of deck as "used card". Instead card was used by Bonnie who should have taken "new" card from top of deck. Got into Tampa port early and this caused the casino to close early. Not good.
