Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Ate in the Main Dining room every meal. Service was a bit off, so talked to one of the Officers since it was so unusual. Staffing is a struggle since some contracts have finished and some servers went to Wonder if the Sea. Kind of created a perfect storm. New hires are learning as fast as they can, so we just took a different approach to our servers and encouraged them as often as we could. You could see the difference in their countenance immediately! It also changed our focus because, let’s face it, being on a cruise is better than a day at work!!!
