Sail Date: Nov 2018
Cabin: Interior

Main reason to travel was a "new ship" This should be reliable and meet our expectations.

The ship was majestic and magnificent but mellowed in a few areas. Dining food was wet 60% of the time due to standing time. This means 40% was excellent. I measured this against Caribbean and Cunard where their food was very consistent

Waiting to attend the theatre was potential safety issue because of crowd rushing to get seats in a theatre which was narrow walk ways and sit down space was like being on a cheap long haul flight. Designer of ships please note. 80% of all problems normally relate to poor design of one thing or another

Cabin Review

Interior

Cabin IB

Room Negatives

1] Beds poor quality, sagged overtime, which led to a slight back ache on 8th day

2] Auto light off system led to now warning blackouts when occupied, should have a dimming system to alert occupier of "no card in slot".

3] Toilet door opens out and hits other occupant in the wardrobe area.

Room Positives

4] Hot water in shower no indication mark, does lead to confusion and hot water burning and cold water shocks

1] Movie selection

2] Clean

3] Wardrobe design

4] No noise form other utilises and theatre noisey practice sessions.

Other negatives

1] Queuing for the theatre, which cause crowd rushing and potential for accidents

2] Dining food excessive moisture, due to lack of dining supervision control

3] Theatre was over crowded feel due to poor design of walkways. Shows were good.

4] Excursions seemed expensive to me.

Other positives

1] New ship and reliable

2] Beautiful NZ
