Sail Date: Feb 2017

First time and last time with Royal Caribbean if this ship is anything to go by. Old, dated, I am guessing used as a training ship for crew, especially the chefs and entertainment department as entertainment was simply poor bordering on embarrassing - out of tune singers, a juggler, and a comic doing impersonations of Columbo (yeah it's 2017).

Poorly choreographed dancers, sound guy out of synch with the show, and, if your idea of funny is a camp latin man running around with a hug me sign around his neck, then you need help. Total mismanaged mess. Buffett on a par with a Golden Corral restaurant, toilets that didn't flush and the worse ship I have ever set a sea leg on.

Avoid - there are far better options than this. Some crew were attentive others just plain ignorant. Try getting a drink at a show...had to virtually tackle two waiters who were headed off as soon as they could.
