Review summary

THE ONLY DRAWBACK TO THE ENTIRE TRIP IS THE ROYAL CARIBBEAN APP. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE, WE PAID $16 X 4 PEOPLE TO USE THE APP ONBOARD CHAT FEATURE AND IT WAS WORTHLESS. IT WAS VERY HARD TO SEE WHAT ACTIVITIES WERE BEING OFFERED EACH DAY AND AT WHAT TIME. WHEN YOU DID FIND WHAT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR YOU HAD TO THEN CALL OR STOP BY THE VENUE TO RESERVE OR PAY FOR A SPOT. NOT USER FRIENDLY AT ALL. ALSO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ANY GOOD SHOPPING THIS SHIP ISN'T THE PLACE TO FIND IT. OTHER THAN THAT THE STAFF & FOOD WERE SPECTACULAR,

TONS OF ACTIVITIES WERE OFFERED YET THE CRUISE WAS AT MAX CAPACITY SO IT WAS DIFFICULT TO GET RESERVATIONS TO EXPERIENCE THEM. THE POOLS WERE PACKED SO DIDN'T GET TO USE THEM

Ship tip

MAX CAPACITY IS APPRX 4600 PEOPLE. THE SHIP IS BEAUTIFUL & LARGE BUT WITH THAT MANY PEOPLE ABOARD IT'S DIFFICULT AT TIMES TO NAVIGATE THRU THE THRONGS OF PEOPLE. YOU CAN'T USE THE POOLS WITH THAT MANY FOLKS VYING FOR A SPOT

WAS VERY DISJOINTED. HAD A TEXT STATING IT WAS OUR TURN TO DISEMBARK AND WHEN WE GOT TO THE GANGWAY WE WERE TOLD THEY WERE ONLY READY FOR LUGGAGE TAGS WITH 6 ON THEM & THAT WE'D HAVE TO WAIT. OUR GROUP WAS 18 SO WE ENDED UP WAITING IN THE WARM MUGGY GANGWAY FOR CLOSE TO 30 MIN
