A great experience - Large cabin on 3 deck - more than enough wardrobe and drawer space for 80 Kg of luggage. Caronia restaurant has very attentive waitresses - not such good wine waiter. Food excellent all over the ship. Drinks fair price - UK hotel prices.
Entertainment fair - not a single name I would recognise with quality from good to very poor. Big shows were better with lavish costumes. Lectures were very good both destination and more general.
Plenty of daytime events to keep everyone busy with range from Origami to Ballroom dancing.
Shore excursions were good but advance booking required in January for March excursions to be sure. Excursion bookings closed for day 3 excursions before we had boarded ship. No on line bookings which is very much behind the times.
White Star luggage service - pick up failed on the appointed day for no reason. Otherwise worked well but VERY Expensive - $600 for 23Kg.
