Now don't get me wrong, we don't moan, and we aren't like some of the others you've read on reviews who seem to just want to whinge....

all we wanted was just a relaxing birthday 2 night weekender on our (previously) favourite ship which sadly turned into a bit of a disappointing farse.

A relaxing drink after the long wait queuing for embarcation despite the promised Elite fast track check-in? I don't think so, as the introduction of a new (to us and most passengers anyway) " Standard" and extremely limited drinks package applied to everyone who thought they had the "Classic" resulted in total confusion and many many harsh words by passengers to the poor crew, who had been primed with the words 'well you can upgrade to the Classic or Premium for only £.... per day'

Cabin Review

Deluxe Veranda 1B

Cabin 1B

Clean and tidy as expected, and as always. TV remote sellotaped up and didn't work was the only tiny inconvenience.

Port Reviews

Le Havre

Honfleur is a very pretty small fishing port, with some astoundingly beautiful medieval type architecture.

Great day out, dotto train to high viewpoints recommended.
