Review summary

Liked the cruise and the ship over all! Maybe the ship is about as big as it's possible to handle... Maybe cabinattendants had to many cabins/p to make a great job???

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Fast and smooth... But then we arrived in early afternoon... Before lunch I think the lines were long and it took time!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Teriyaki restaurant was excellent! Five stars! But dining and buffé a bit tasteless... A lot to choose between..! Great!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Pools were good... Zipline and slides expensive... Good gym and fitnesscentre... Nice and good spa, but to a high cost...

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Took us longer than is use to to learn to know the ship. Common areas didn't turn out as new as you would think on a ship that's only been in sea for one month!

Ship tip

Walk around the ship a lot the first one or two days and try to understand the layout!

Wait I knew that the zipline was paid, but are the slides paid as well?

Loved the cruise (as always) I prefere the "Fantasiaclass" to this type of ship... Maybe too big and too many people? Perhaps cabinattendants had too many cabins to do a great job??? (A bit to wish on the cleanlyness...) Lots of things at extra cost on this ship!
