Sail Date: Mar 2017
Cabin: Family Balcony

We were celebrating a friend's 50th birthday on this cruise, which was good fun.

The ship is large, and was completely full = 4100 passengers. This ship showed us that we should stick to smaller cruises!

Public areas feel very cramped, especially in the midship area of decks 6 & 7. There are not enough pool deck and sun deck areas for this number of passengers. There is no promenade-style deck, where you can walk the ship. The lounge areas don't really have any water views - it's a bit like being on a landlocked hotel.

Cabin Review

Family Balcony

Cabin B3

Very compact. Bed is very short - and blanket doesn't reach up all the way to your shoulders. Only one electrical outlet. Mattress was average, not great if you have back issues

Port Reviews

Port Canaveral (Orlando)

Important tip at US Customs when returning: if you have a porter, you can get in a quicker moving line.
