Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The design was good, but the exhausted fumes from the ship engine was probably the cause of my illness. Even though the doctor diagnosed me with pneumonia I think that was not the case. Other individuals was also sick.

Slow. I was very ill, no consideration was given to me. After being diagnosed with pneumonia. A 103 temperature labor breathing. Plus how did I get pneumonia on a cruise ship???

You probably were sick before you got on cruise. It wasn't RCL's fault. If your sick, stay home!

Sorry you did not feel well for your cruise. that sucks I understand that but I don't see how you can blame the cruise for exhaust they can't control the wind. you can control where your cabin is located if you decide to go on another cruise maybe you should choose a cabin forward of the exhaust stacks. I'm sorry there wasn't enough ethnic shows for you. Did you complain on board the ship? They might have given you a free corkscrew or something like that you never know

I’m with you Jules15, I think she was sing before boarding and it took a turn for the worst after setting sail.

I agree. . I found they bend over backwards to make you happy. You just have to ask.

I’m sorry you got sick! Being ill on vacation is never fun! I got the swine flu in Mexico once & flew home with a very high fever. My heart goes out to you. Although I’m very doubtful it was caused by the ship’s exhaust. Nevertheless being sick puts a real damper on vacation! Hope you’re feeling better!

You should have asked for a wheel chair when departing the ship since you were having trouble breathing. Someone would have taken you off of the ship along with the first passengers to depart the ship. You would have been treated like royalty.

Pneumonia is either viral or bacterial...not environmental (unless around others with a virus) you were probably carrying the illness before boarding, dont blame the ship...fyi, sloe=slow

Maybe your resistance was just down when you boarded the ship, did you fly in? The air on planes is recycled.

Someone most likely was sick with a virus boarding the cruise, you wouldn’t have gotten it from the exhaust fumes....
