Myself and my wife went on Emerald Princess for our 2nd cruise. (Having previously been on the Crown to Norway in 2013)
Embarkation was particularly smooth and trouble free,so that was the start we wanted.
The Horizon court was crowded,but always expected in the first few hours of boarding,we like to think we are patient and seats opened up quite quickly.
Clean,tidy,perfect for us, as all we do is sleep in it!!
