Review summary

We appreciated the fact that the ship only had 2700 people. It was a perfect amount - not too crowded and easy to move around. We did not have a problem finding a seat at the pool area, dining room or entertainment. Having been on a cruise with 5000 people and a ship with only 680, this was a perfect blend of cruisers. Thank you for a great time.
