Review summary

Over all the cruise was great.  The staff that cleaned our room, Elisa, and the two men who served us were great, Fardeen, the ports were nice.  Wait staff in most of the bars and show locations were not very good.  They didn't come by and see if a person wanted a drink, but just stood around. Boarding and getting off of the ship was chaotic.  We changed docks for some reason and that added to the confusion.  The staff suggested that we use a new app to help proceed thru customs quicker but US Customs isn't prepared to handle this app yet.  Didn't like Grease and they had three shows of this mediocre performance.  This cruise was right before Christmas, should have at least one show with a Christmas theme,
