Review summary

The wonderful parts of this Cruise are the Entertainment and the Delicious Sumptuous Foods served in numerous restaurants in the ship. The entertainments provided in the Royal theater plus the Music Hall and the Two/70 hall and more have been great that guests have not found any dull moments in the cruise for more than two weeks of stay. Indeed, it has been a memorable journey along the Mediterranean and the Middle East. I strongly recommend this ship to all my frirnds, relatives and families. INDEED,.GREAT VOYAGE!

The cabin attendant is good and helpful to keep the room neat and we'll irganized. More photos have been taken by the ship phoyographers.

New big ship with many facilities is always great to cruise. But if you are looking for great friendly service, go for smaller shop like Legend. Not so crowded, the crews were excellent.

It's a new ship so some folks unprepared for the growing pains will be unpleasantly surprised. I would never sail on a new ship during the first few months. But that's my choice some like it. Also I think you may see some more bad reviews during its time in Asia especially by folks unfamiliar with the Asian or Chinese culture. (Like we saw with quantum). Just go with an open mind is my advice

I agree new2cruising. But each to their own with reviews. I am so excited and we are still 200 days away. This will be our 4th. Always look on the fun side of life!

Thanks for the great review. Starting to get worried about some of the more negative reviews most recently posted.
