Review summary

WE were disappointed in the itinerary change and shortened hours in two ports. RC also gave inaccurate info on its web site re formal nights.( They said two, there were none) We packed for them unnecessarily. While the evening shows were excellent, there was a distinct lack of lounge entertainment. Also disappointed that RC did not honor our request for a refund after we discovered a price reduction on line after we paid but before the cruise. Getting off the ship was delayed by approximately 45 minutes.

They only offer price changes up to final payment date, it’s in your contract. After that they will only do an upgrade if available to a higher room type.

Sadly they’ve never updated their site to say Empress does not have formal Nights. Only shop in the fleet that doesn’t do them.

Sorry for your experience but I guess as a whole, your cruise was good. I hope so!
