Review summary

Great trip and ship! Only problem at all was the wait for the Main Dining Room every night and the fact that they didn't keep the tables cleaned off in the Windjammer.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
My Time Dining was a disaster, regardless of having a reservation, the wait was NEVER less than 25 minutes. Tables were not kept cleaned of in Windjammer, had to find a table. Food was delicious in the Main Dining Room. Not so good in the Windjammer.

Onboard Activities

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The comedians were hilarious! The singers (shows) weren't as good. None were really bad singers, but their voices didn't sound good together.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Elba (our steward) was amazing!

Did B2B, we met, waited, was led off the ship, through customs (which is stepping in front of a camera) and back on the ship. If you do a B2B, get the same room for both, so you don't have to move anything.
