Review summary

Excellent ship and nice itinerary after very disorganized and frustrating embarkation at Port of Seattle.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Most disorganized embarkation I've ever seen in over 15 cruises from many ports. Will avoid Port of Seattle in the future. Total chaos, no signage, port employees unprepared.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Blu restaurant was consistently excellent for food and service. Buffet was hit or miss on both. Main dining room was disappointing for lunch.

Onboard Activities

Average.

Appreciate your feedback. I guess the Seattle port has forgotten how to work embarkation day. Sorry. Glad you enjoyed your cruise in spite of it.
