Weather played a big role, as temperatures didn't get over 60 degrees. It had been in the 80's the week before.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Once we understood the process and flow of traffic, it couldn't have been easier. We were checked in within 15 minutes of getting to the terminal.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food overall was very good. Bar service was spotty. WA and AK additional port taxes for drinks not explained very well. Not informed of BC law regarding bars being opened or closed on ship during port stop.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Limited due to weather and availability of staff.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Again, having to do with staffing issues. However, kudos to Guns and Rojas in the Cavern Club. Great band with a wide range of material. Beatles invasion were good but range of material made it seem stale as t times
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
16 year old son loves the teen club.
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Spotty at time. Many times it seemed like they were disinterested.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Very clean. However, design is a little lacking compared to same size ships on other lines.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The only reason this gets the rating it does is because of the larger balcony. Otherwise, it was functional. Nothing overly spectacular.
Ship tip
Atrium is on the smaller side. It can get crowded if activities are going on at the same time passengers are trying to access guest services, the shore excursions desk and the bar.
Slight hiccup with customs with the facial recognition technology. One that was fixed, no issues. Was sitting back at SEA three hours before my flight. Had I known it would be that fast, I would have booked an earlier flight home.
