Review summary

Love the itinerary, Hated Celebrity. We were treated like second hand citizens. They denied our move up to the retreat, so our meal choices were limited. We had to spend more money because, our bid was denied. Yet we were denied, dining options, we were Still excluded from certain bars,or we had to pay more, because,1300$ wasn't enough. Our trip turned into a game of what we could do without spending more money. Nothing, we stayed in our cabin the last two days. It was a money dumping cruise, that don't even have the respect to get your name correctly when they pressure you out of your money! Also, we were we paid for things, we did not get.

Embarkation

1 out of 5

Bought the Carnegie, which included early embarkment, we did not get early embarkment, we were told to sit down, very rudely

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

When asked our food preference, we were told could not do it, or we would ordered rare and steak was well done. Then smiled, and pronounced my name wrong, everytime! There were times when we were looking for food but most everything was closed.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

We were kicked out of the hot tub at 9:00, because they were closing it,but others was not. Most activities involved getting us to spend more money on drinks jewelry, art or casino. The last two days we did not want to out of our room.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Shows were good

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

Only two people pronounced my name correctly the whole cruise. My room steward was great. Was literally pressured into buying the drink package even though I told them many times no, still can't pronounce my name correctly while I give in to the and fork over 1300$ for a drink package I didn't need, we lost so much money. But they wouldn't sell me a simple drink without giving me a five high pressure selling lecture, again not using my name correctly.

Ship tip

Not to, if you do, bring lots of clothes because there is no laundry, and they give you a laundry bag about 18 inches, it could only fit two pair of jeans and a couple shirts, they charged you 59$. We went home wearing dirty clothes
