Review summary

Had a fabulous time on the cruise and on the excursions in the Greek Islands. The one major complaint is that the Jade is an old ship with very little activities on the days at sea, other than eat and sit by the pool for the most part.  The other complaint is that they charge for everything.  There are only 2 "Free" restaurants for dinner other then the buffet Cafe and about 7 pay restaurants so you find yourself eating at the same two restaurants every night and waiting on line to get in.   Been on other ships where they have things like rock walls, ice skating rinks etc....

Best time ever on this ship. Was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the stories. Just back from it. Staff fantastic. No wall climbing on it.

Glad to hear. We are cruising in December on the Jade. 😄

Love the Jade it's one of my favourites - it has a great promenade deck, something the newer ships seem to be lacking sadly.

I haven't yet but I've seen it listed for the jade and had my cruise agent validate.

The ship shows that there is a rock wall? Is that a misprint?
