Review summary

Everything was great, only real thing I have to complain about is the internet, I paid for it and it was not good at all!!!! Was very disappointed, was going to ask for a credit for it but just said screw it, just wouldnt use it anymore....thats how they get you on board charges...

Embarkation

4 out of 5
We had some issues at the beginning but it turned out that a staff member by the name of Carol, was very helpful and got us through it and made it a very enjoyable trip.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Good food, and drinks, wish they had a mexican restaurant on board

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Wish we had got another ship, because we didn't have the rock climbing and I heard there were out door movie theaters on other ships or indoor pools, we didn't have that and we paid a good amount for our cruise.

Entertainment

We took the drink package on 19 day Panama trip. We aren't drinkers but really had fun trying all the drinks at ALL the venues. We made a game of it and it was quite entertaining.

We got our drinks package thrown in as a promo (drinks or speciality dining or WiFi - choice was a very easy one!) but otherwise I doubt we'd have been able to afford drinks!

Cheers is like $50-55 per person. plus gratuities. I was quoted $460 for the two of us for a 4 night cruise
