Review summary

This is our first time to cruise a big ship. It was intimidating to see so many people at check-in, but the process was smooth and the card system, I think, is great. I would have liked to see more of the view during sailing, but we usually sailed at night. The staff is excellent, and the food is superb. You may expect to be a little "floppier" after the end of the cruise because of the vast amount of food available almost 24 hours.

Great layout. At first, you need a map to go around, but later on, it's just like home.

There's quite a lot of shopping activities, but don't forget to bargain.

Catalina Island, California

3 out of 5
The motor tour to the Airport in the Sky was quite a trip, offering a great view and an almost an "E" ticket ride.

San Diego, California

3 out of 5
We are already familiar with San Diego, so we just visited the USS Midway Museum.
Don't Miss: One should visit the USS MIdway Museum.

Pros: Excellent services and amenities

Cons: Small shower room
