Review summary

Ship is beautiful, but its all driven by tech therefore no printed deck plans etc - everything is on the ships app which forces you to carry a smart phone around. Also as a new ship there were many hiccups - things not working, etc. Infinite balcony is not really a balcony; its a opening picture window similar to river ships.

Thanks for the review. Would expect a few bugs on a brand new ship. I'm sure they'll be paying attention to feedback.

It wouldn't be so bad if the app worked properly on Android.

Yes, I'm not too hot about having to carry a phone around. Usually totally unplug on cruises.
