OMG. Where do I even start. I'm cured of ever wanting to go on a cruise again and I've only been on 2. The chaos an amateurishness of the embarkation process was my first clue. Total nightmare. Before the cruise, I spent weeks emailing back and forth with the special needs department and filling out the required forms and found out on the first night that NONE of the information about my ...

Just returned from the Symphony of the Seas transatlantic sailing – Miami to Barcelona. We cruise a lot, our third in six months but for whatever reason have not had occasion to cruise RCCL since 2014. Things have changed. FOOD What is going on with RCCL's food service? ALL the food - even in the specialty restaurants was of a noticeably lower quality than the ships we've been on recently ...

Crew A+ Waitstaff and housekeeping steward…. Food mediocre, chops grill steak inferior filet mignon cut and sides came out cold. Windjammer worst buffet experience, food and presentation, main dining room waitstaff great….food menu disappointing and mediocre. Solarium great at night, chaotic for breakfast and food selection much like a school cafeteria. Future cruise department was a ...

The WORST cruise I have ever been on.

This is our forth transatlantic so we know what to expect. From day one there have been uncalled for and primarily unapologetic things that have gone wrong. It was a back to back and on the second leg they kept us in the theater 3 hours because they couldn’t find the new sea pass cards. Management was very unaccomidating in the dining room. They were short staffed and would not combine a table of ...

This was our second Royal Caribbean Transatlantic crossing and what a contrast. Our 2018 trip was a real pleasure. This November 2022 cruise was plagued by mistakes. Almost every day there were last minute changes, conflicting and often duplicate scheduling of events on the ship. Repeatedly, crew made no seating or staging preparations for events. The Cruise Campus was a mess. Examples: Oe ...

Not good, not bad cruise

We took this T/A RCL cruise because the price was unbeatable and because we got our Celebrity T/A cruise for the same period from Lisbon to Rio de Janeiro cancelled. I am a Celebrity/Hal guy where I think the food are the best and they are the one keeping the real idea of cruising. RCL strives to isolate you from the sea, there is not even a place/table/bar/resto to sit and drink or eat outside ...

I Wonder what happened to the Allure TA...

We were originally booked on the Allure Westbound TA back in the fall of 2020 that was canceled a week after final payment was made. So we were very excited to be able to book the Allure Westbound TA for the fall of 2022. Then RCI canceled the Allure TA, but transferred everyone to the brand new Wonder of the Seas and for once I wasn't too disappointed in the change. First off, my roommate ...

We booked this ship because it was new, Oasis class and leaving from one of our favorite cities, Barcelona. The ship itself is beautiful, as only Royal Caribbean can do. It seems longer and wider than other Oasis Class ships like Symphony, Harmony , Oasis and Allure. Our crossing had 400+ passengers. Lots of Europeans, and a very small number of children. We also had over 250 Pinnicle status ...

A fantastic Transatlantic on the beautiful Jewel of the Seas

This was my first cruise following the pandemic, my last being December 2019. I chose this as I love T/A cruises, so many sea days to savour. I chose the Jewel as I don’t like huge ships, the Jewel is 2500 passengers and there were only 1200 on this cruise! The ship is a delight, so much wood and glass it is beautiful. All areas were sparkling clean and staff were fantastic ...

My dream was to cross the ocean in comfort during my lifetime. It was all so easy. Our cabin attendant introduced herself right away and explained that for the next 12 days, we were not to worry about anything. We opted for a suite, and indeed the extra space and amenities made a big difference. Thirty-four drawers for storage and two built-in wardrobes. Very pleased how well the A/C worked. Beds ...
