we did this cruise as a B2B for 29 days ending in New York. The first part of the cruise was the British Isles and the second part Norway, Iceland and transatlantic.....what an incredible itinerary!
I am still trying to figure out past previous negative comments on the condition of the ship. Yea, its getting older, but aren't we all!...we found it to be in very good shape and spotlessly clean. Beds were fine, food in buffet above good,....but not quite as good as on the Royal.
The makeup of passengers changed very noticeably on the turnaround day in Southampton...
