Review summary

The ship is fine but having to make reservations for literally everything is not what I'm used to.  If you don't do it before you leave you will have trouble doing things you want to do.  The drink package is more expensive than most cruise lines and does not include water, which is not the norm on any other ship and the cost for it is outrageous.  Long wait lines at the bars because they don't staff them with enough people, maybe to discourage you from drinking if you purchase the drink package.  Food was good for the most part, except in Moderno which I would not visit again.  But even the generic buffet had good food and they changed it up each night which was nice.
