Review summary

Warm and friendly crew. Ship easy to navigate. Lots of dining and entertainment options.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
The Port Of Los Angeles dropped the ball completely. Stood in torrential rain for 1 hour to get through security. Whomever is in charge of boarding in Los Angeles should be fired. Luggage porters hid inside where it was dry and made passengers stand in line in rain to drop off suitcases. Totally unacceptable.
