We’ve done 15 cruises on RCCL and 3 on carnival. And done the Mariner before. They are all excellent because we learned very early that they aren’t going to be pure nirvana. They are what you make of them. People like you should stay home.

Apparently there are a lot of people on this app who don't understand how the internet works. This app is connected to a booking site. If you book a cruise through that site, when you return you're asked to rate the cruise. That's why some of these reviews actually look very different and why a person might not have any cruises listed. Even if they have cruises listed, it doesn't mean they've done them. I've seen people with cruises listed that overlap.

Rather confused about your review. You say you walked off when you should have been getting on. It looks like it was your first cruise.

Did you need to make reservations for the ice show?

So you say ‘Embarkation - we walked off’, so, you didn’t actually get on then, which perhaps explains your review. Did you not get on any of your other cruises either?

These people reviewed through the website. It doesn't mean anything if someone has no cruises listed. I agree the food on Mariner in the MDR isn't great. We bought the dining package for our next cruise, which is probably why the MDR is meh.

I love these guys they complain about everything, they say that they have been on 34 cruises but they don't list a single one. I don't know what's happening with these folks.

I think you should stick with the above cruise line you mention.you seem like someone who complains about everything. No need for your kind on Royal Caribbean.

Confused as well. I was just on sister ship, Adventurer. There are two banks of 3 elevators in forward of ship and two banks of 4 elevators in aft.
