Let me start off saying, I will be 40 years old in a couple of months, and my husband is almost 50. We are not really the younger crowd type, but we still like to have fun. This ship was 85% senior citizens. I was ran over several times with a hoveround (sp?). The activities were geared towards an older crowd. The nightlife was okay. Eating in the Windjammer reminded me of eating in Luby's. Just too many older people.
Getting on the ship was a nightmare. I am a fairly patient person but the staff to help you get on were very rude. We felt sort of like a herd of cattle. Once on things got better. The ship is gorgeous. Very nice. I would say it outshines Carnival.
I would say the food was not impressive. I've been on two other cruise lines and the food surpassed this cruise line. Not too happy with some of the food costing extra.
