My first time on Majesty was one of my early cruises (this was #12) and over a decade ago! This was my first ever SOLO cruise. so I thought a smaller ship would be a better choice. While some aspects of smaller WERE preferable (fewer people, got to know the crew better), the lack of major amenities (Solarium, Promenade, better hot tubs, etc) was a big downer. Add to that the ship is showing its age (I heard it was heading for some "cosmetic surgery" in Jan) made it an overall "Miss". That said, the service and food were up to the usual high standards. The shows are one of my fave parts of sailing, and while the talent was all there, the smaller theatre with FAR less "tech" features was a disappointment, especially after experiencing Freedom, Quantum and Oasis class ships.The result: It's go BIG or don't go for me from here on out!
