Review summary

favorite part of the cruise were the days spent at sea on the crossing from the Azores to Fort Lauderdale.very relaxing.This vessel was drydocked for two weeks & there was a few problems over the first two days. The toilet did not flush for 24 hours. The tv had problems for a day. There was very poor satellite reception for the tv & for the internet. I felt that a lot of money was spent waiting to circulate around the internet.Everything else was quite good.

Sailing the end of December, so excited! Are there blow dryers in the bathrooms or do we have to bring our own?

I was on the same cruise and agree that leisurely ship time is great. It's our second crossing and I knew I would love those days at sea. Sorry to hear about your problems. We didn't experience any of those except for several times there was no satellite reception. I don't have any expectations for a good TV reception and don't buy internet as I know there will be problems. The only real issue I had was with the room key that I had to replace 5 times. I let the cruise know about it and understand we were not the only ones with this pain in the neck. Other than that it was a wonderful cruise, we had so much good time I wish I could share with others.
