Creator's Key Takeaways

It's really deep compared to other ships we've been on.

The entertainment is something great to look forward to such as the shows in the main theater.

The venues for the amount of people on the ship is really too small and even sort of uncomfortable.

If you're a vegan, you really have to advocate for yourself as there are very minimal choices of food.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Advocate for yourself if you are vegan due to minimal food choices.
Arrive at least 45 minutes early for main shows to secure a seat.
Consider booking a pass to the thermal spa or Haven for better pool access.
