Review summary

Had a good time, there was some small issues along the way. The internet service is terrible!!! I"m glad I used my "perk" to get it, it didn't work most of the time.

Embarkation

Embarkation was simple and easy, if you had your paperwork in order

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The buffet was okay, the selection of food didn't vary much from day to day, call it what you may, but beef and rice, is just that no matter how you dress it up, the fish was good. But keep in mind, I'm not a real fan of buffets. Aqua Class passengers could eat at the Blu Restaurant. The food there wasn't much better then the main dining room. The specialty restaurants where fanstastic !!! The Tuscan had the best pasta I've ever had. Qcuisne was fun and food delicious. The staff where eager to please and very cordial

Very commercialized, We did the land, sea tour. The tour guide on the sea part of the tour was great, on the land part of the tour, it was a waste of time. The tour guide didn't tell us much bout Cabo, but he made sure to tell us about this "Old" door at this place we were going, but didn't tell us where we were going. When we got to this place with the "Old" door... it a small restaurant with a souvenir shop. My wife and I stayed on the bus

Good to know. I’ll be on the Infinity next October. We’ll be cruising from San Diego to Ft. Lauderdale. If we get a temporary International unlimited plan, we should be able to use the phones in all the ports. On the ship, they will be on airplane mode and turned off in the safe.

What were you using the Internet for? My hubby will be recv/send biz emails. I will use to post to social media. Is the Internet ok for that kind of use? No streaming.
