First time on such a large ship. Seven days is not enough time to see and explore all of it. The production of CATS was the best! It is done by travelling troop of London performers and not the ship entertainers. It was just as good as when we first saw it on Broadway. With over 6000 passengers, many areas were very crowded but being in a suite eliminated some of that (dining, lounge, etc.). I am in a wheelchair and most of the areas were easy to get around to or in. However the aft solarium area (pool, jacuzzi, quiet area) were not. If you want to use a wheelchair lift into a pool, you have to find a deck worker (pool) and ask them to find and get it. It takes awhile. All activities ran on time; all crew was very helpful in anything you needed. The Central Park area is an oasis of trees and green plants. Lovely especially at night. In the middle of the day however, it is humid and hot. There are two banks of elevators - one forward near theater with 6 elevators. The other is aft near the dining areas with 6 elevators. There was never too long a wait for an elevator. There are ample handicap restrooms around the ship with plenty of signage. The zip line (near the wave riders) has excellent personnel. Being in a wheel chair I wasn't sure if they would let me try. THEY DID! They put two extra men on the release and catch area. One of the (Dylan from Ireland) got his harnesses on as well as mine and walked me right up to the start, stood behind me to balance me. In the catch area there was an extra man who caught me and then stood behind me to hold me up and balance me while the other unhooked all the gear. It was an experience I'll never forget!

Cabin Review

Crown Loft Suite with Balcony

Cabin L1

Our two story cabin was excellent. Agust and Alfonso, our stewards, took care of anything we needed. Loved this suite area: 34 suites and private lounge, bar and dining room.
