We were on the Reflection for her innaugural transatlantic several years go and just loved the ship and the overall experience. When the ship moved to Port Everglades we were thrilled she was there and booked her for three future cruises. The ship is in great ship and very clean and the staterooms are roomy and the bathrooms and shower dynamite. The staff on this ship are so great - friendly, helpful, happy and just fabulous. I look forward to seeing them all again in January. I was hugged many times, called by my first name from day two and made to feel really special. The food was the best I've had in a very long time and the desserts - oh my oh my - scrumptious doesn't cover it. The buffet for breakfast and lunch were phenomenal and there were so many choices it was hard to know what to narrow it down to. There was something for everyone. Dinner selection was also wonderful and we felt no need for a specialty restaurant visit as everything we were served in the main dining room was super as was the service. Their dinner salads are unlike anything I've eaten on other lines. The specialty acts - especially the singing acts were great and there was always plenty of fun things to do all day long on the ship. Their production numbers sadly not so great. They need to work on this. They didn't push merchandise so you didn't trip over tables of "stuff" which I appreciated. They had a big 50% sale the last sea day and that was held inside the shops. Their internet package prices are pretty pricey but the service really wasn't as slow as I've heard it was. I never had a problem with our free 180 minutes. We met lots of wonderful passengers on the cruise. Of course, there are always some people who have no manners, are simply rude and think they are the only people in the world. That's on every cruise line. Lots of people escaping the cold winters from Europe, Canada and up north and I can't blame them. The weather was lovely and the seas the entire trip were like glass. We had the classic beverage package and prepaid gratuities and lots of shipboard credit so once onboard we had no expenses. Having the beverage package was wonderful and so easy. We never abused it. Disembarking was a bit of a mess but that was t the fault of a celebrity. Customs was short handed and they had things backed up for almost two hours. Short handed doesn't help when a huge percentage of the passengers were no residents. Dumb planning. Overall a perfect cruise and Inlook forward to the next one in Reflection in January with five of my terrific gal pals. They are in for a treat!
