Review summary

Ship lost a stabilizer prior to our boarding, PAX not notified of this or the flooding of compartment. Five ports were cancelled Boston, NY (weather), Bruges and Le Havre cancelled hours after being told we were stopping there. Local Divers put over the side of the ship in Gran Canaria to perform additional repair work on ship where the stabilizer was lost. Cancelled stop at Cococay the morning scheduled to arrive (rough seas?) The ship had just sailed across the Atlantic rocking and rolling because of the missing stabilizer, barf bags at each stair landing, as little rough sea might have made a change from the rolling. The Officers, were not forthright with PAX about the prior flooding and lost stabilizer. I have been on 14 RCCL cruises and this is the only negative review I have every made.

Something needs to happen to the Luggage being sent to the wrong belts, and early departure bags (8:00AM) not arriving for until 10:00 AM.

Manipulation

worst cruise ever taken

Disappointed at so many itinerary changes, but travel guidelines clearly give RCCL authority to do so when they deem needed. That said, cancellations by so many disappointed cruisers certainly resulted in attentive service for those who stayed on!
