Additional details

Sail Date: May 2011

The whole time you are on this ship you can't wait to get to land. A British man I talked to compared it to being in the army and he hit the nail on the head. If you go on this ship drink HEAVY to cope with no service and no entertainment...BTW you will pay through the nose for it!

Food

The food was for the most part is inedible. One morning the eggs were cooked is a dirty pan that fish (with bones in it) was cooked in the night before and I threw up. You can only eat when they tell you it is time and if you are late by 15 minutes...YOU DO NOT EAT! Room Service you need to pay for and the menu consists of bad pizza, boiled hamburgers, and soup. The "juice" is Tang unless you pay for it. All of the food is the cheapest crap they could buy. Every meal you need to fight for a glass of water and most times you loose. There is no service and if so none of the slaves from a third world countries understand English. Avoid the buffet unless you like hospital food!

Cabin Review

Cabin 9

Laundry

"Misplaces" your clothes and then calls you a liar when you ask for it all back.

TV

There is only one channel in English (BBC) and two movies that loop the whole time but if it has subtitles you can' read them because the TV is two small and the volume does not go high enough to hear most of the time. Also it goes out all the time! BBC went out while in South Hampton.

"Beds" - Cots

They are not beds!!! They have COTS that are less comfortable then the ones I have for camping!
