Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Most of the dining areas were uncleaned and trashed from spills left by people who did not care. It was difficult to find a seat that was not soiled from food spills.

Jusme I was thinking the same thing about the crew.  I live in the city that I work and also work holidays so  I get to go home after my shift but I'm still down that I have to work.  Imagine you're thousand of miles away from your loved ones on a holiday/birthday/anniversary etc.

Maybe the staff looked sad because it was X-mass and they were working on a ship away from home, family and friends ?  "The cruise was to expensive"   Did they force you to go on it ?   if not how can you complain about what you willingly paid for ???

 

If I cruise before the Holiday I take some boxes of candy to give to my room steward and MDR staff....... Wrap it for them so it gives them a feel for the holidays.

Are you going on the 10th Venus on the splendor?

We planned almost a year ahead and it was half the price as usual. We also got faster to the fun so we get on earlier than everyone else.

Always expensive on the holidays and summer.
