Creator's Key Takeaways
we've been cruising since 2016 and we've only ever cruised with Mel or Pio and we know that they are trying to get that sort of clientele on board
I think the food at evening times was so so much better than Mela and Pano you know I've had really good quality food
value for money it is excellent excellent value for money because I've seen some other cruise lines that are cheap and they are cramming people on
the communication for the disembarkation process for tendering could do with Improvement and if that's the same for disembarkation tomorrow that'll be a worry won't it
