We reserved our cruise direct with RCCL. Our flights, hotel and transfers were booked independently and were much cheaper than we would have paid if using RCCL.

We arrived in Barcelona one day prior to the cruise. Unfortunately our luggage did not! We reported the missing luggage to our airline but to no avail. We boarded the ship the next day and RCCL could not have been more helpful. Despite having made all our own arrangements they provided a free formal dinner suit for my husband, T shirts, toiletries and free use of the laundry service. They also tracked down our luggage which was delivered on the second day of our cruise. We remain extremely grateful to them.

The ship was huge. We didn't get the time to see all of it but enjoyed the areas we did get to visit. We had booked a balcony cabin - for the first time ever. We thoroughly enjoyed the extra space it gave us and the new bedding was extremely comfortable. Read more
