Review summary

Other than the airport transfer bus disaster and shoddy internet, and sub par (worse than usual) windjammer food, all was good. Although I was billed for gratuities automatically but specifically requested to pay my own when cruise was booked.

My partner was never given customs green declaration card to fill out ahead of departure--- and staff didn't have any, slowing our departure. The bus to the airport transfer was pure HELL. Absolutely unacceptable. 100 DEGREES non working AC.

Great cruise to cross off a bucket list item.
A good way for getting from Europe to the US with young children. Overall a very good experience.
