Sail Date: Nov 2011

I cruised on this ship in November 2011 and am writing this review to give a heads up to anyone planning to use this ship.

I believe this ship has Norovirus. Of approximately 70 passengers, at least 20 became ill over the course of the voyage with severe omiting and diarrhea. I believe 20 to be the minimum number as people were still getting sick on the trip home and some did not report to the doctor. This is my own personal opinion and not confirmed medically; what is completely certain is that approximately one third of passengers suffered violent illness over the course of the week. One young person became so ill that they had to get an IV.

I am not a public health or medical person but I have many concerns about the sanitation practices on this ship.
