Review summary

We love the mary and the transatlantic journeys. She’s still the most civilised way to get across that big pond

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Little bit of a longer line than usual but otherwise all good

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Buffet perhaps a little bit worse than previous years, but Brittania experience still first class. We never use the speciality ones as we are more than happy with brittania.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Not used- gym is not my thing anc spa is stupid money. They really should halve the prices and more than double the takers.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Royal court theatre company are world class πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘. However guest speakers are a lot lower profile than in years gone by. This was a big disappointment for us

No children with us
