Review summary

It all started with the port that can't handle a ship the passenger size of the Epic. Lines to get in line. Lines at the bar, lines at the buffet and lines at the restaurants. Some of the staff was over worked or at least they acted like it. I've taken the Epic before and loved it but I doubt we will ever cruise on it again. Even guest services had a line that was beyond the length of the room before they called in additional staff to help. The time you spend in line is time away from enjoying your vacation. Our cabin boy was great and the entertainment was great. The islands we visited were very good ports of call. We also got sick with the flu. We washed our hands at every opportunity and still ended up with a bad case of the flu. I won't blame this on the epic as it could have been the plane but we still were very sick for 24 hours or more each. On those days we stayed in our room and didn't expose anyone else. We had fun but the lines made it ridiculous.

Booked an inside cabin and slept like the dead. Loved it but like the balconys too.

The roads aren't set up for quick delivery. We sailed out of there in a smaller ship and it worked great. They just aren't set up for that many passengers.
