This is by far and away the WORST cruise we have ever been on and we cruise a couple times each year. We purchased this cruise in June of 2023. This was prior to the Maui Fires. The cruise was to leave Vancouver and start the 6 day Pacific crossing, however due to the Maui fires the two days/nights we were to spend in Lahaina were off the itinerary. Instead Royal Caribbean made the decision ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

My first time on a cruise. Booked in April, 2023. Two weeks before we are about to start our one-week land tour, RC had to cancel the 9-1 sail due to "propulsion issues". Then one week before we start our land tour, RC cancelled the 9-8 sail due to the same "propulsion issue". We fly out on 9-9 for the land tour, not knowing AT ALL if there is a 9-15 sail. I think we were notified on 9-13 or 9-14 ...

Not a Great Experience

The noise level on the ship was outrageous. Every place you go on the ship there's horrible music blasting everywhere. Even in the Windjammer restaurant they had some lady singing (actually blasting) Lady GaGa - it was so bad that my husband and I left in the middle of our meal. There isn't a single area on this ship where you can just sit, relax and read a book. We had to stay in our room ...

The food is terrible. Not only that, but they constantly ask you how the food is. If you say anything other than good, the Food Mafia (or so if felt) shows up to interrogate you. Seriously, we were chased down the hall for more information about what exactly was wrong with completely flavorless mashed potatoes. They’ll offer to give you a different meal, but that will be horrible too. For example, ...

This was our 2nd cruise. Our 1st one was a Disney cruise, that put this cruise to shame. The beds were hard the maid picked up anything and everything that was on the floor onto the kids bed/couch. Not very good cleaning service. Plus my bling belt went missing and I know it was in my room because I didn’t change my clothes anywhere else aside from my room. When I went to report it they had ...

A complete review of 7n Alaska on Brilliance of the Seas. We had 3 staterooms and 8 people total for a 7 N cruise from Vancouver. The trip itself was great, but the cruise experience was sub par. The Ship Let’s be honest: The last time this ship was refurbished was a decade ago. It’s clean(ish) but in desperate need of an overhaul. There are only 4 outlets in a stateroom and 2 of those ...

Alaska itself was absolutely breathtaking.. we loved every shore excursion we took. However, we were very disappointed in the ship, the food and the customer service. ( I should say lack of customer service.) I will say that our suite was larger than we expected, and we absolutely adored our cabin stewardess she was amazing. Having sailed on other cruise lines where are used to a certain level ...

We figured this would be a really nice ship, we were so wrong! the jr suite we stayed in was right below the windjammer and so all hours of the night we could hear them cleaning. The beds are so hard we may as well be sleeping on the floor. They will even roll housekeeping carts down the halls at like 2am. There were hardly any activities and most of the shows were boring. We saw only one good ...

I have been cruising every year since 2010, as my mother and I share a birthday, we like to celebrate with a trip, making this my 12th cruise (took 2 yrs off for Covid) and other then the first 3 (which were with Carnival) I have been a die-hard Royal Caribbean loyalist. I tell EVERYONE that although more expensive, they have better food and more comfortable beds. However that all changed 2 weeks ...

Terrible cruise with Spring Breakers and Shame on RCCL for not handling ADA issues well.

I chose this itinerary because I was on a B2B2B. I boarded the Radiance on 9/23 for the 11 night Hawaii and stayed on 10/4 for the 2nd Hawaiian cruise and decided to stay on for this 10/15 Pacific Coast cruise. The first two cruises were unremarkable while this last leg was remarkably bad. It coincided with spring break and there were too many unsupervised, unruly kids. I had remained in ...
