Review summary
Service was great. Everything was clean and beautiful. Food on buffet was great and we had a memorable meal at Chops - excellent in every way. Main dining room service was excellent and food was very good. Most of the production shows and comedians were good. We could have done with a LOT less of the "reality-tv" type shows. We also had a medical emergency aboard ship. Instead of a air lifting the person off, the ship was diverted to port to drop the person off. This schedule change made it impossible for us to keep itinerary and we lost one of our 3 day stops to a few evening hours in San Juan. We certainly wanted best for ill person, but this whole situation was not well communicated to the passengers and made for lots of confusion. I still wonder why if it was emergency, they did not air lift the person. It was a very nice cruise but we have seen better entertainment on other lines. We went to two activities listed on the daily schedule and they had been cancelled. Good vacation and we would probably go Royal Caribbean in the future but we will consider other lines for our next cruise.
