my husband wanted to do New Orleans and I was interested in all the ports.

Embarkation was quick for us. On the ship by 12:00. It was two hrs late leaving so bad for the casino goers. We had an inside cabin 8206. Very quiet even though it was next to the crew stairway and at the very end of the hall. They are now only doing your cabin once per day, but still get the towel animals. We opted for late morning.

Dining was just okay. We were not able to get our 6:00 dinner seating so had Your time dining. We did like we were told and lined up early so we could request a certain waitress. We ended up a few nights with the same people. It was a major downer the first night as we had asked for a shared table and they stuck us in the corner by ourselves. Not a good first impression. Service was abit slow in the restaurant. Really missed the tableclothes etc, as they only do it formal night now. If your not a seafood lover choices are the same old same old. Steak and eggs on a sea day in the dining was very good. I would do that again if we decide to do another cruise again. Read more
