We did the New Year's Eve cruise and it was fun. They put on a variety of good parties. My complaint is the bar service was slow in most places and you can't get the frozen blended drinks anywhere but the Casino bar and the pool bars. It was a pain to get one if you weren't in the area. The Brilliance is getting run down and needs major maintenance. In Cabin 8604, the buttons on the safe are worn out and I could never get our bill on the TV. The main dining room food was good and the service was very good. We ate at Chops Grill 1 night and that was excellent. The service was fast and the food was fantastic. Most of the staff was very friendly and helpful. The balcony on 8604 is bigger than most so it's good. i thought the bed was a little hard and made it hard to sleep all night.
