Review summary

Been a celebrity client some 15 years , I believe there main dining room/ Buffett are the best on the high seas . I have used blu and main room on various cruises over the years and been fortunate to have used luminea on my last few trips . I have no complaints about the staff who are fantastic and professional but the food was way below par if your going to serve Ala Carte it needs to be stunning and have taste this was neither very disappointing. Not everyone had that opinion but a few did .

Embarkation

3 out of 5

We where told embarkation appointment was 1.30 pm but when arriving at the terminal staff where dismantling the checking in queue equipment once in board we discovered most people been in board from 10.30 am won’t be taking any notice of that again .
