Which makes things easier, actually. No Post Cruise Depression.
Background: 6 NCL, 10 Carnival, 2 each HAL and Cunard, 1 each MSC and Princess.
The good: the crew was excellent. It was so nice to see crew in perfectly tailored uniforms, instead of the sloppy, hastily tucked in look that I've seen on Carnival of late. My cabin steward was great; he always kept us stocked with extra coffee pods and creamers, introduced himself the first hour we were there, and was always in the hallways saying hello. Ryan, cabin 10162. The guest services staff seemed to always be mingling in the line to make sure we were in the right line. Taste, Savor, La Cucina and Le Bistro wait staff were all great. And it's a new ship. Everything is clean and unmarked. 678 Ocean is a nice space. Our cabin was perfect. The Garden Cafe (lido buffet) is a really nice space and surprisingly good. Taste and Savor for breakfast- excellent.
Beautiful and very new feeling. Balcony very small. Shower very nice sized with curved door.
