The 'JAZZ' is a new ship for American Cruise Lines. All cabins have balconies. Lots of room and very nicely furnished, decorated. Checking in was easy and very welcoming. Dining options very more than adequate and food was great. With covid they were constantly vigilant of keeping everything wiped down and distance between tables as well as keeping some seats at the tables limited in number.
The lecturer was excellent; so knowledge on the Mississippi River, the history and advances over the years. I learned a lot! The entertainment was excellent as well and varied. Very friendly and open to questions.
The staff was also very attentive to everyone's needs. The tours were varied and great as well. Interesting to learn the past history of many of the places along the river and the importance of the towns.
