Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on Explorer of the Seas

There is for breakfast and lunch massive queues, as Windjammer is too small for capacity of the ship. Apparently capacity of the passangers is 4200, Windjammer can hold I think roughly 1000.I stayed hungry or eating any food which I dislike as I couldn't get trough the counter l...
Booked suites which is basically slightly large than balcony, not even sofa bed, only old dirty sofa. Ship is old ...

We have cruised with P&O, RC Symphony of the Seas, Virgin Scarlet lady, Morella, and by far this was the worst ship we have ever been on, this ship is well past its sell by date, falling apart, outdated.
Entertainment was the worst I have ever seen, butlins is much better, people walking out 10 mins into shows, what really annoys me is that this was the 2nd most expensive cruise we have been ...

Disgusting ship, looks very dirty and fallen apart. Very old and not kept amenities, dirty old bed sheets and blocked shower drain, the hair dryer stops to work half way,it was not possible to dry the hair completily and I have short hair. Unfriendly personal at the poolbar and cafe. Crowed swimmingpool area, no rules in the jacuzzi, a lot of people at the same time and children jumping on it. I ...

We wanted to take a cruise vacation on that specific dates. We liked the destinations and picked RC. It is really a low quality company. I understand many people chose this company because of the price but we were not happy at all. First the ship is old and dirty. may be that had better this. Secondly, we were not sati sfied the service at all. The food is not good, fitness center is not well kept ...

We have been "Loyal to Royal" for over 20 years. This was the worst cruise of our life.
Cruise Director poor at best. When describing Suez Canal all that was said was " sand and more sand, lots of sand". Would have been nice to have commentary while transiting canal but we got nothing. Our toilet kept flushing on its own every night except the last 3 nights. Overflowed once. Food in dining ...

Having been with Royal Caribbean several times before we were very keen to travel with them again, on Explorer of the Seas as a new Itinerary for this cruise included the Azores.
First of all I must mention the Price it appear that Royal Caribbean on this cruise was charging the UK market far more than in the US and Canada and the difference was excessive.
This ship has had troubled times ...

14 Night Cruise on the Explorer of the Seas September 2015
A little apprehension kicked in when for ecological reasons you print your own luggage tags, forgive me but to get four it took four sheets of paper instead of the eight you used to get on a single A4 sheet, methinks that it is for economical not ecological reasons. The last time we sailed with Royal Caribbean was in 2011, and then ...

I have a triple negative cancer which is a terminal condition and have been advised not to fly medium or long haul , a consequence of the cancer treatment is the need for very high levels of hygiene due to my reduced resistance to ...

EXPLORER OF THE SEAS: Ship recently refitted and capacity increased by about 700 people. There was nowhere to sit at any bar after the late sitting dinner. Resorted to sitting on stairs along with other passenngers. Staff could not cope. Constant queueing at all bars in the evening for a drink. Queued for breakfast due to lack of waiters. Sundeck absolutely packed to the gunnels with no space ...
