Review summary

Forced to swap itineraries based on international conflict. This was a solid adjustment. Ports were similar but different in their own way. Standard service from Royal. Enjoyed the cruise overall.

Entertainment

Main stage shows were good. All cruise lines show look into past winners of TV talent shows. The other performers around the ship were ok at best.
