Review summary

Our 6-7th cruise.  Great itinerary, wonderful food.  Entertainment was great.  Very interesting daily seminars. 

On the down side, Internet service was costly and terrible.  Lots of constant hidden charges, had to pay daily for bottled water, also daily service charge of $25.  Alll services were also marked up 15% even doctor charges.

Automatic bag transfer to airport was a disaster. They should just build those costs into the trip, rather than nickel and dime us to death.

Overall, though a wonderful trip
