Review summary

I heard the ship was only 2/3 full, so I’m sure that enhanced our trip. I was usually on the elevator by myself. Only waited once for an elevator, and that was getting back on after a port day.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
From drop off at curb to being on the ship was 5-10 minutes. No lines to get in. Several employees waiting before you enter terminal. The guy looked at our passport and ticket, took our picture and asked if we knew where our room keys were. No, I said. He said they were on room door and we could go get them. That was it! Easiest embarkation ever!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All the food was great. We tried the 4 main dining rooms, as each had a different theme. We only ate at one specialty dining, La Petit Chef. I was afraid the show might be a bit childish, but I enjoyed every minute of it and the food was delicious. My husband had the braised short ribs and I had the branzino. Both were great!

Onboard Activities

Didn’t partake in these so I can’t rate.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We watched Rockumentary and it was one of the best shows ever. My music from the 60’s and 70’s. Divas3 was also good, singing all the songs from the best Divas. Crystallized was a cirque de Soleil show and the performers were very talented. Roy Tan, a pianist, was fantastic. Very talented. The comedian was good, not my favorite. The comedian/illusionist was not very good, in my opinion.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Glenn was our room steward and he was great. Found me a softer pillow which made my sleeping much better. Our room was always neat and clean. He came twice a day. The staff all over the ship was very friendly and always spoke when i passed them.

Easy to get off ship and find our luggage. Short walk to the cabs to take us to the airport.
