Not sure why all the hate for the Epic. It's a big ship, you will walk a lot, but come on, is that really a bad thing after all the food eaten all week?! I never waited more than 5 mins in line at the buffet and the food was very good. I don't understand why people are complaining about having to wait for anything. You're on vacation, there is no need to be in a hurry! Guess what, do to fog, we our ship was several hours late arriving so we waited forever in line to board, but we didn't flip out! I believe some people board thinking they should be treated like kings and queens and that just isn't going to happen with that many people on board. Yes, the cabin layouts total suck, but again, you are floating in the beautiful blue ocean so chill. Water sides are fun, great pools, comedy and magic show were great! Wish they still had Blue Man Group as it was a family show. Can't and wouldn't take me kids to Priscilla show. If you like to have FUN and don't have a stick up your behind, this is the ship for you. If you like to complain about every little thing and can't roll with the punches, do us a favor and stay home or cough up the cash for the haven and have the butler you so desperately think you deserve!
