Review summary

Special cruise with our adult children to experience new places, people and custom’s

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Experience could have been better if RCCL kept embarkation reservations time requirements versus providing no notice that reservations are suspended and thus having long lines. Should therefore bring back boarding by RCCL status for better movement of passengers.

The ship amenities were amazing but the perks that normally come with royal class suites were not up to par.
Disappointing
