Review summary

This cruise was an absolute dream. You can’t see everything in a week. Definitely planning another trip soon!

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Embarkation was a very long process. We go with the flow with a lot of things, but for some reason this new terminal still seems to have some kinks it needs to work out. The check in process was a breeze. Probably one of the quickest we’ve been through. Now the waiting for boarding was another story. The terminal is absolutely too small for the amount of people the ship holds. Our sailing was at New Years so sailing wasn’t 100%…I can only imagine the chaos when it sails full. There seemed to be a intercom system but it was either not working or not being used for our boarding. There was a lady standing at the exit screaming which zone was boarding. That made it extremely hard for people in the back to hear. Needless to say we made it through the whole process in about 1 1/2 hrs so not too bad.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Man the food on this ship was endless. We ate all day every day! So many choices and so many free places to eat. We really enjoyed street eats because it changed every day. Big chicken was good, I loved the fries. Dining room was amazing like always. If you leave this ship hungry then it’s your own fault!
