Review summary

The staff was disinterested, rude and unwilling to assist. We had to chase them down to even order drinks, they would not give us directions and yet they expected tips. Their eyes seemed glazed over and unfocused - and thus was across the entire ship. The ship was dirty. The disembarkment for ex Orion’s was chaotic and unorganized.

Service and Staff

1 out of 5
Staff across the ship were disinterested in helping us or anyone. We had to chase them down to even ask a question or order drinks. When we did catch them, they were rude and unwilling to provide assistance. Staff routinely cut in front of us and were not courteous.

Ship Quality

Ship tip

Be prepared for half of the passengers to be in wheelchairs and slow to move through. Be aware the staff across the board is not professional or well trained.
