What a great way to cruise for the very first time on this beautiful great ocean liner. This ship is huge and very Grand. It's built for this crossing of the the North Atlantic. I would of normally chosen a warmer destination with smooth crossing but this holiday was a gift. Of course the ship has some movement but because of the size and design of it, the crossing was only a little rocky in places.
There is something for everyone on this cruise. I was a lot younger than a majority of the passengers and could of occupied my time well.
If your a food lover, make sure you loose a good half a stone before you board as you definitely will not come home slimmer........ The Briannia restaurant was lovely the service was fine, beautiful food, choice of two sittings. I didn't try the Queens Grill as this is for selective passengers you can still use it of course, but would be charged. Dressing for dinner is of course part of the holiday especially for the ladies always smart evening wear. If you don't want to do this then the Kingscourt Buffet offers a massive variety of lovely prepared dishes from all over the world.
Clean, tidy, fresh towels sometimes twice a day. Spacious. Room service available at all times. Shower was good.
A lot of waiting, and queuing .
Fast efficient all part of the experience. Very organised.
