We chose this cruise so we could try a new ship, having sailed on the escape and breakaway along with several others,never on a new ship! I must say I have no desire to sail on this one again for several reasons. The most important one being that I have never seen so many things that weren’t included in cruise fare as usual. I usually prepay for dining, excursions and tips before even boarding so I don’t owe after a cruise unless it’s for pictures. The shows had terrible long lines even tho we precooked all we could! I did not feel there was as many choices on the buffet as usual for a ship this size. The look and service was as exceptional as always! It was nice to see the shine and smell that new smell! Can’t say enough good things about the service of our room steward and all the wait staff in the dining rooms and bars! All the shows other than the beetles were fabulous...really enjoyed choir of men and kinky boots! The 2 times we got to see the comedy show was awesome also, would’ve loved to see the second one but was never able to get in.
