This was the fourth trip on the Spirit. Because it is a smaller ship you actually get to meet some wonderful people. My husband has a walking disability and we had no trouble whatsoever getting to the ship. When on board I did not have to worry if he went himslf to the restuarant as there was always someone who helped him. Everyone of the staff on board are wonderful, always smiling, the service is great also. The cabins are more than adequate for the time spent in them. Food is excellent and the entertainment is just wonderful. You can dress very casual, smart casual or dress to the hilt - its up to you. We did not go on many excusrsions this time as we had been to some of the places before, just had a lazy, quiet day on the ship. We will definately be going with Thomsons again
