About our Bacon Score methodologyStandout creator quotes
“the first in the icon class will be the largest cruise ship in the world”
“Pacific Rim turned out to be our favorite restaurant on board, and indeed, we would rank it amongst one of the best on any ship we've sailed on.”

“The Wi-Fi, the perennial grumble of the high seas. It's included, yes, but it can be leisurely.”
