Review summary

The big benefit of this cruise is that there are no long flights involved. You get to visit Hawaii, Samoa and French Polynesia,

The cruise itself was very good because we were very lucky with the weather and the sea was mostly calm. The 8 sea day run from Tahiti to Los Angeles became boring. There was plenty to do on the ship, and our cabin on deck 8 was comfortable and mostly smooth even though the Pacific did get rougher. The ship is showing its age.

Entertainment

The main theater does not have enough seats for 1/2 of the passengers, If the show was popular you had to arrive very early to get a seat.

Emerald deck has mostly obstructed windows. The lifeboats are outside your cabin, although 415 was not obstructed by anything giving us the benefit although paying the obstructed price. The mattress was worn and had a hump in the middle where the twins butted together to make a queen.
