Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean. What impressed me the most no covid,flu or colds during and after the cruise. Being served made the difference and room stewards said they wipe down corridors three times a day Very impressed! Masks were not worn by the majority of people which was just fine with me. Had sanitizer stations outside of lido market and practice good handwashing!

Could not believe the storage 2 ladies with lots of luggage. Everything including suitcases were stored away out of sight.

Ship tip

The departure times for boarding did not seem to matter as you received a assigned group number once you checked in.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

Very long lines to get in the port entrance prepared to wait. Save time and have your passports available to show guards.

Willemstad, Curacao
