Review summary

A mixed bag. Attraction to cruising once was ease of traveling. Now almost as many reasons not to go on a cruise again as there are to go. At some point cuts to services and quality will affect decision to continue cruising. I understand cruise lines are still coming off the effects of pandemic but long term cruisers will eventually say "enough".

Split decision. Specialty restaurants were great. Buffet decidedly mixed quality.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Usual mix was OK. Atrium too crowded for most events.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Million Dollar Quartet & Burn the Floor were great. Comedians were awful.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Mostly good. Cabin service has gone down since crew is doing more with less.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Casino smoke a problem. Public spaces too crowded.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Balcony smallest we've had. Enjoyed larger shower. Room otherwise standard.

Ship tip

Don't sail during any kind of holiday where kids will be coming.
