Review summary
There were plenty of great experiences with Royal Caribbean, but the food could have been better. For instance, the food variety at Windjammer was lacking, with only two types of cheese available for the entire cruise. Additionally, the special restaurant menus remained unchanged throughout the voyage, making it sufficient to dine at each only once or twice. The fixed menu included multiple full portion entries, which seemed unnecessary and turned it into more of a double dinner menu rather than a prefixed one. I was hoping to learn about the captain and senior officers, but unfortunately, it didn't happen. The captain didn't even appear during the crew flag parade, which I found disrespectful to his own country and all passengers. The ship areas aren't very spacious, so the music, especially around the pool, could be too loud at times, which was disturbing for those trying to relax on their balconies.Embarkation
