It is hard to know where to begin-the overall experience was one of frustration and despair. I had booked a very expensive "luxury" cruise billed as providing lectures on the ports re WWII history and anthropology-they also advertise a PADI scuba course on board. None of these were provided. When asked the staff including the hotel manager was not at all helpful-the overall attitude was tough luck-just shut up and stop complaining.
Our luxury cabin had little or no airconditioning. After 5 "fixes" and still a hot room they finally admitted that the ac does not work in this part of the ship. I wonder if they go through this charade each cruise pretending that there is simply a technical problem. These are the balcony suites on 7th floor on the back of the ship.
The port times were all scaled back by several hours-on two ports we had only 3 hours on land before "all aboard"
