Take a look at your cruise port, this one was docked in Brooklyn. I thought it left out of Manhattan so it was a little harder to get to it from downtown. Also have patience when chalking in, it will take a little while. The Muster drill is different, have to listen to your tv in the room, dial a number from the room to check in after you heard it and then go down to the muster station and check in. Its not bad , but different than other ships.

Food & drinks need improvement.
If you are a Coke lover, you will appreciate the cold cans instead of flat soda on tap.
Affordable cruise option with q balcony & drink package
Great internet service, which was included for 2 phones !!

Eat in the dining room as often as possible. The buffet upstairs was terrible and normally out of several things.

Do the Bermuda Itinerary. If it involves other ports just stay on the ship.

Getting to the dock was a nightmare. I don't think I'd go to Brooklyn again. The ship is LARGE and you really need to get a map.

Book specialty dining as soon as you board or shortly thereafter.

Make sure to bring European plugs to convert over. Dont be afraid to send food back. 80% of it will not be good.

I wouldn't recommended this cruise line. They’d have to get things in order as far as food and service are concerned.

Be prepared for 1-2+ hours delay getting on or off the ship at each port.

Do not take the first cruise on a new itinerary for the ship. Getting on and off the ship in ports was a nightmare! They had no logistics in place to ease the lines and it generally took over an hour of standing in line to get back onboard. Customs was mishandled and an arduous process as well. We didn't get off the ship for ports 2, 3, or 4 because the queues were so long. I have a feeling they will get this issue squared away for future cruises with these ports but this one was pretty bad.
