Creator's Key Takeaways

we decided to book a quick weekend getaway and try it out for ourselves now that the cruise line has its ceiling legs

embarkation was smooth food has been really good the crew has been phenomenal

I'm very impressed with the food overall today as a whole

the room is seed really really well nothing but a breeze over the portal window here for what it is and as old as this ship is I'm kind of liking it

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Get more than one appetizer at dinner as they are small and included
โœ“Request a free international to US style converter from guest services if outlets are not working
โœ“Take pictures of bar menus as they differ between locations
