Somebody is obviously missing something in their life!! To feel so strongly about having to wait an hour to embark - a clear indication of how exaggerated your other moans are. You really need to do more research before you go on holiday; you could have been aware of most of your gripes before you’d even got off your sofa!

An hour to board, wow excellent Gear to LGBT, actually every ship is Dining crowded, you should had pick an off time to eat Staff, sadly some only smiles since lack English language to engage, but I'm certain you could not communicate in their native language, so Just breath

The ship should be retired? It's not even 10 years old. And what is cruise diplomacy?
