I had a great cruise on the Emerald. So I booked two more on her. No worries here!

Sorry you had bad experience . Mine was wonderful on the Ruby. Will be sailing on the Emerald in December and can’t wait.

Very surprised have sailed on Emerald twice and had a wonderful time no complaints about the food or crew, may be you are very fussy or have an attitude to the crew.

I’m sorry you were so disappointed. We loved our time on the Emerald last July

Wow I’m very surprised. Sailed her twice and have made friends with some of the crew. That’s the first ship that I cruised on and got me into this cruise addiction habit I have. I hope your next cruise turns out better.

We were in the Emerald a few months ago and loved it. Shocking how much it must have changed since then...🤔 Or maybe...
