Ship tip

The elevators are awful especially for seniors. Pack light as you may be doing lots of stairs. Half hour wait to go down to disembark so we carried bags down the stairs

Thanks for the review. I've seen several reviews where people believed the cruise was overbooked. I'm not sure what that means. There can only be as many guests as there are cabins. No way are there too many guests. Maybe it is just short staff that causes longer lines and waiting so it feels like more people on board.
