Unfortunately the ship had to miss a destination because it thought the sea was a slight bit choppy. There was only a couple ports of call that we could stay ashore a reasonable amount of time. The ship was fine generally but my gripe was the price of a drink if you did not have a all inclusive drinks package which seemed to be all or nothing as if you only wanted the odd beer occasionally the wanted the equivalent of over £18 a pint. Talk about a rip off and suffice to say I had no drinks onboard!

My only complaint would be the choice of food in the general restaurants. It was very limited and the menu hardly changed.
