We've sailed on two of the Voyager's sister ships before and this was not up to the standard of the other two (Explorer and Mariner). We love the layout of the Voyager class ships, but the Voyager itself did not live up to our expectations. We still enjoyed our cruise as we can't find a reason not too, but on this ship the service, the food generally and the feel of the ship were just not up to the usual high standards we have come to expect on RCI ships.

Dining room food was below standard and the menu lacked variation and interest. The Windjammer got it together, but was not up to the usual high standard and much of the hot food was served warm at best.
