Review summary

The cruise and staff were great. The itinerary was great and the food was great. I have no complaints about the cruise itself. The people on the cruise with us were incredibly rude. I have been on more cruises than I can count and have never seen people this rude. They were coughing (without covering) everywhere. They would walk by your table while you were eating and cough. No one would make room on the elevators. If you were at the back of the elevator they wouldn’t move to let you off. No one seemed to comprehend the word “excuse me”. They would walk directly at you when they were on the other side of the space. One time I was walking thru the right doors on the windjammer. A woman was on the left side towards the left doors which were wide open and free of people. For some reason she made a bee line for me and try to walk where there was no room. If anyone reading this was on this cruise - please be more polite and for heaven’s sakes cover your mouth when you cough and don’t cough near the food!

Not sure why this is called scenic arctic cruising, it’s just cruising in the ocean. No different than any other at sea day

The port is in an industrial part of the city. If you have a mid day excursion, you will not get to walk around the city because it is too far to walk
