Would the crowds be overwhelming? Would we spend most of our time standing in line? Shoulder-to-shoulder with other passengers? Searching for seats at every event? We needn't have worried and should have known better - because the folks at RCCL really have their act together. The staff was superior to any of the dozen-plus cruises we have taken in the past. The dining, show times, and special events are all designed to maximize the comfort and ease of the guest. With an increased number of passengers on this beautiful vessel, we stood in line less than we ever had, and never had difficulty finding comfortable seats for any show. The search for lounge chairs on deck (near the pool) continues to be the eternal challenge, but you could easily find one on the upper deck if you wanted sun. We tried each of the specialty restaurants and found them to be extraordinary in both offerings and service. Cruise cabins are notorious for being small, but we are only there to
sleep and change clothes because we're out enjoying the offerings of
the ship - so how much space do you really need? The new, rounded
Cruise cabins are notorious for being small, but we are only there to sleep and change clothes because we're out enjoying the offerings of the ship - so how much space do you really need? The new, rounded shower stalls with the sliding doors are an improvement to being attacked by a shower curtain, and the closet was nice and roomy. We also had plenty of space in the cabin for our toiletries & other belongings. There were "ship noises" but we never heard a single passenger or crew member in he hallway at any time. It was a very quiet area.
