We chose this cruise because it fit within our schedule and we needed to get away for some rest and relaxation. We had been on the Regal Princess before and had enjoyed this ship immensely. This time we were pleasantly surprised with the improvement in the selection and preparation of the food. The American bacon was greatly welcomed but make sure it is crispy. Service was excellent and always with a smile. Entertainment was also stepped up from our previous cruise. Embarkation had one hiccup in that the shuttle took some time to get to us at the airport. Otherwise, getting on and off the ship was about as good as it gets.

Getting to the theater from dinner seems to be a rush to get a good seat but this is true no matter what the cruise ship. More signage is needed to advertise the fact that life-jackets aren't needed at the life-boat drill—a card in the cabin would do it if prominently displayed.
