Review summary

It was the worst cruise I have ever been on.The food was mediocre.The wind jammer was very hard to find a seat.Chinese were reserving up to ten seats at a time taking large plates of food when it ran out wasn't being replaced.The ship says no smoking is allowed in indoor public areas yet the casino is like an opium den the amount of smokers using it.At the end of the cruise we were told to leave early to give the ship a deep cleaning because of a novo virus outbreak.The hall where we collected our cases had thousands of people in it and was a nightmare
