We originally booked this cruise back in 2019, but it got cancelled because of the pandemic. We booked again but our cruise got cancelled 3 more times.

There are even four diamond-shaped glass elevators which run from deck 2 to deck 11, and provide a really stunning view of the atrium.

We had anytime dining, so we ate at the Black Pearl Restaurant some nights. It was very big, and very beautiful. It had spiralling chandeliers of black pearls, and the whole decor there really suited the ocean. On deck 5 is a walkway that spans from the atrium to the El Morocco Lounge at the very aft of the ship. The Royal Flush Casino was also located on this pathway.
