I appreciate your comments and agree with most of what you have said. Breakfast buffet was my favorite meal of the day. The lunch/dinner buffet surprised me too as there weren’t many options-or maybe I didn’t like their options, lol. The Ruby went into commission in 2008, and had a refresh in 2015, I believe…anyway, thanks for your review!

I love the older smaller ships. One question I have is why do people complain about the buffet? Do they expect great food? It’s a buffet!
