Review summary

They should pick a different ventue for the New Years party instead of the promenade. It was ridiculously crowded to the point it was hard to breathe. And the bars charging $100.00 per chair was outrageous. We pay enough for the cruise to start with it being New Years. So to change just to have a seat. You must be joking.

Our cabin steward was awesome. He kept our room clean and stocked. It’s a junior suite with a nice balcony. Lots of room.

Ship tip

The Irish pub on the promenade is a great place to have a pint and watch the people go by.

That is just crazy! Charging for a seat when on a cruise? As for the Promenade crowds, I’ve sailed the Indy and Oasis, and the Promenade is always packed for any event.

That’s a New low

We found the promenade very crowded at night and that was in September. Fortunately we didn't have to pay for a chair. That's outrageous.
