Review summary

Nothing bad to say about this cruise. It was great. The staff was friendly. The shows were all great. Favorite thing was probably the Aqua Shows, followed by Grease and then the Ice Show. Food was good. Favorite place to eat Sabor, followed by Jamie's and the Chops.

Ship tip

Don't get to overwhelmed it's a big ship with lots to see and do. You probably won't get to do everything you want. Do the things that are most important to you first and then worry about the other things.

I just got off the Harmony ( my review will be posted soon) and I was actually impressed how NOT crowded it felt. I really think the separate neighborhoods help with traffic flow. Certainly the pool deck was always crowded as we're the pool bars (10-15 minute wait even with 3-4 bartenders at each bar but that's really to be expected considering the volume and all the blender drinks!) and getting into the main dining room , even with reservations, was a 15-20 minute wait. They passed out complimentary champagne to the people waiting and that was a great touch! You need reservations for shows but we still got the feeling you could have gotten in without them. Elevators were slow but again, you have to expect that. I think if you go into it with realistic expectations, being aware there are 6000 people besides you, planning ahead and just having some patience, you will love it! I'm the first to say I'm not terribly kid friendly, but I didn't feel there were too many and outside of the few runners in the hallways, I wasn't bothered at all by any of them.

Did you feel that there were too many people or too many kids. Not sure I would like it or not but would like some input. All the things offered seem really good.
