Review summary

This was our fourth Royal Caribbean cruise have enjoyed everyone.I am platinum on carnival wish I would have started sooner with Royal don’t get me wrong have enjoyed carnival too but lately I don’t like some of the food changes they’ve had made especially since emeril has come to be head of their cuisine in main dining room liked old menu much better can’t get some of the old favorites anymore wish I started sooner with Royal would have had higher status and still same loyalty benefits with carnival since in reality being platinum to diamond in the scheme of things isn’t that great
