Review summary

It was a huge ship, moving several thousand people, so count on some lines. It is not all inclusive, so count on at least a few hundred dollars extra (including a $13.50 gratuity per person automatically added to your bill every day). The main Buffet is excellent with lots of variety. Service is excellent in the Dining Rooms.

I went to several "seminars" and they were thinly veiled sales pitches. From others I learned not to go to seminars -- what a disappointment! I showed up for "30,000 years of Art" and there was no one there.

Service was very good, but announcements kept asking for us of recognize that way to often.

Layout was good, floors could have been cleaner.

Cabin / Stateroom

Very compact and efficient. Our cabin attendant was 5-star! Very clean.

Ship tip

Maps of the ship's layout are posted on walls by the steps -- very helpful as it is otherwise difficult to know if one is in the front or aft of the ship.
