I chose this cruise because I am of Italian heritage and the online ads caught my interest. The ship is beautiful, the cabins are also quite nice, and the service was great. However, since I am first of all American born and the ship sails from an American Harbor, I don't think enough attention was given to those passengers who are also American. All the announcements were translated into several languages which became tedious;, but even the English speaking announcers had such a heavy accent that you couldn't understand them. The daily newsletter was quite confusing as far as activities. I was denied entry into the dining room for lunch one day because i wore a one piece bathing suit, which was covered adequately with a cover up garment, because they had rules about decorum. But the outrageous public sexual behavior on Deck 14 by a large group of "bears" was never admonished. This was on the smoking deck, and unfortunately my travel partner is a smoker. Also what I missed was seeing a show which incorporated a Comedian. This could have been accomplished in one of the many nightclubs and could have been geared to those who understand English. For those reasons I will probably stick with Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Celebrity,etc. next time.
