We chose this cruise based on the transatlantic itinerary. Embarkation and lifeboat drill were flawless. We particularly like the inside lifeboat drill where you are able to sit in air conditioning for the 20 minutes or so. Other lines force you to stand in the heat awaiting the arrival of other passengers.

Our cabin on Aloha deck (234) was good as well as the steward, who always kept everything neat and clean. It was forward which was only an issue when it was very noisy during particularly rough seas.

We chose anytime dining, but elected to dine every evening at 7:30 pm. Carlos, not sure of his title, reserved our favorite table 412 nightly. Carlos was the most upbeat member of the staff. In fact his bubbly personality was contagious making each evening great. Our waiter were extremely pleasant and efficient, always making sure that we had everything that we needed. Food was good, but nothing spectacular. For the most part the food at both the buffet and dining room could have been hotter.
