We have had 5 cruises canceled since our last cruise. It was wonderful to be back! The Regal is in good shape, and the staff were amazing!
The changes were mostly expected. Only fully vaccinated people can cruise, so it was disappointing that one family in our group couldn’t go because their 10 year old couldn’t get the shot in time to cruise. The rest of us got our Covid tests 2 days before sailing and were cleared to board.
I believe there were only about 1200 passengers, which made for a good time with plenty of space and lounge chairs by the pool. The usual movies, shows, games etc were available. The buffet was 1/2 the size, but just as good as always. Staff served you what you wanted, although some items were in single cups so you could grab and go yourself. Sinks have been installed outside the buffet so everybody has to wash their hands before entering.
