Review summary

The ship is in excellent condition, very well appointed ,very comfortable, and easy to get around on. The activities are typical of what is found on about any mid ranged priced cruise ship with nothing special to make it outstanding. The dress code of anything goes if you’re covering all needed areas is a very noticeable thing... most people dressed relaxed and you could wear shorts even to dinner. My biggest disappointments were that the food has become just average with us having much better on other cruise lines this year and that the waiters don’t seem to know proper serving and equate manners anymore reaching over plates, serving men before ladies, etc... taking a younger much younger ladies order before the older lady who was present, etc...just to name a few noticed slips in etiquette.

Service and Staff

It use the be the waiters knew and observed the proper waiting etiquette but it seems they either don’t know or don’t care. Overall the staff was not as mannered as past cruise ship staffs have been.
