Review summary

Good time of year to go if you can avoid a hurricane. Transportation to Quebec not the easiest so plan an extra couple of days before you board. With 3800 passengers it did not feel crowded.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Checking in lines moved very fast. Probably no more than 15 minutes to check in.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Ate only at buffet. There was a different main item each night and was clearly advertised during the day. Food was good especially compared to my last RCL trip in April.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Race cars were fun, laser tag was interesting. Jacuzzi could have been a little warmer in my opinion.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We saw the only performance of footloose because of main dancer injury. Wife talked to him next day in buffet and stuff happens. It was too loud in my opinion. Comedians were funny. Final show really need to see twice to appreciate it fully.

Ship Quality

Well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Very comfortable for a cruise. Not great weather to use the balcony with the remnants of hurricane Lee passing through.
