Review summary

Although we did not get to go to Cuba, the overall experience was fantastic. The food and service was amazing from dining, bar, pool and room attendant. Went on the Harmony of the Seas 8 weeks prior to this cruise and although the Harmony is rated #1 in the fleet we had a better time on the Empress. Staff and service can make your disappointment disappear. Unfortunately we missed our flight after the trip because we got into port late due to a diversion to the closest port for a emergency medical evacuation on our last night. Not the cruise lines fault. Good to know safety was priority even though they knew many people would miss flights home. They offered assistance to every passenger who needed it to help make new plans home.
