Review summary

I don't like the layout of that ship, the pool area is claustrophobic for so many people in there at the same time Is not nice to be in that areas.  We have weather problems and we cant do the first stop and we have 3 day at the sea.  Crazy!!!!! and boring...

according to reviews & pictures I've noticed the pool area to be small. therefore I was thinking of getting thermal spa passes, but not sure if it is worth the extra $$$. can you share some reviews on the spa when you return please? @carmenconley TIA.

I figured the pool would be crowded so I booked a pass to the thermal suites for the week. I am happy!!!

The ship has no control over the weather, it's not fair to judge a entire megaship on just weather and the pool deck, I've been on the ship and will return in june it's definitely not boring ,sorry but this post is inaccurate the getaway is the best ship ever

Haha. We just got off the ship on the 27th. We did miss our first port due to weather but hey....you make it all work!! The ship is absolutely beautiful with more things to do than you could ever do in a week!! The pool area is crowded but there are so many places besides the direct pool area. The cruise is what you make it people!!!
