Review summary

Great cruise experience considering the airline lost my luggage! Luckily I have great friends who lent me some of theirs. (most people pack too much 😂) I had some extra items (underwear) in my hand luggage and assisted by Royal who gave me a bag of bathroom necessities, a couple of t-shirts and vouchers for free laundry. I would not let this setback spoil my holiday and it did not!!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Variety of food had been scaled down but quality was improved I enjoyed all the venues especially breakfast at Johnny rockets and hot snacks at playmaker’s

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Did not participate in outdoor games but did do a few trivia games which were fun 🤩 I was with older friends we left the games for the younger players and families.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

“Flight” was the top of the theatre presentations, comedy in the Attic had two really funny comedians and the ice show 1977 one of the best ice shows I’ve seen!
