The reviews are all over the board on this cruise so I really didn’t know what to expect. This was our sixteenth cruise so we are not newbies. I was braced for indifferent service but found the crew nothing but pleasant and helpful. There were smiles all around and any questions we asked were always met with a quick reply and a smile. There was one person who didn’t smile when we were eating. Maybe the person was having a bad day; maybe they never smile who knows however it would be unfair to tar the entire crew with the same brush because one of the 900 crew didn’t smile.
Our cabin was always clean. The common areas were spotless. The ship was in fine shape, the food at the main (free) dining rooms was ample and good. One night we sent a meal back and a different selection was brought out to us.
So, how did it all play out?
