Key Moments
Editorial Summary

On the negative side, the reviewer notes that certain amenities like specialty coffee and bottled water are not included in the beverage package, leading to extra costs. They also express disappointment regarding the quality of meat in the main dining room, the high cost of various onboard activities like the racetrack and virtual reality games, and the unreliable nature of the shipboard Wi-Fi.
