Review summary

Very unhappy and ill on this cruise. Were not treated as Premium passengers despite paying the extra. Ate only Bread and cheese lunch and dinners- restaurants could not cater for special diets. Left one in tears after making special request as was so hungry. Bar staff rude and took the mickey!! Never again!!!!
