I thought the short flight would appeal however travelling over the bay of biscay was terrible I suffered terrible sea sickness which I never experienced before so I would not choose that route again I have been on this ship three times before and I felt that the standards had slipped a little I still enjoyed the trip but just not as much as before - I feel there were lttle extras before that we now don't have like nicer toiletries etc. The food choices were not as varied as before and I feel that the entertainment was good but not very different - also we used the stay a while facility and we were led to believe we could use the ship as before and this was not the case they shut down your sea pass. We could not use the facilities as we were led to believe unless we paid more money so I was confused as to what we paid the thirty nine dollars for so w complained and it was sorted however we do know that other people were not as fortunate as us
