Lacked the luster of pre-pandemic cruises; only one-third full; and various activities curtailed

Review summary

Limited passenger count and face mask requirements change cruising experience significantly but still an enjoyable reprieve. Not as much passenger interaction but no crowds for any activities Shows over 50% empty. After 10:00 pm ship was dead even in bars with entertainment

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Reservation did not get transferred to ship system; had to wait over an hour to process; and one of sea pass never did work other than for entrance. Pre-purchased packages did not come show and had to repurchased with refunds to be made and RCL is way behind in their refunds
