Review summary

Mine was the ship's sixth cruise and the bugs were still not worked out. Ship was 4-1/2 hours late for the scheduled arrival in Athens requiring a wait in line to cancel an existing and book an alternative shore excursion. Terrible buffet layout and inadequate seating. Buffet offers a wide variety of food which is often times not kept warm. Servers are difficult to find and grudgingly offer service when requested.
