The ship is a great ship, full of unique areas for enjoying the cruise. Fabulous art deco even in the lifts. Shame the planetarium isn't used for what it was designed for, and was only used as a second lecture location, but I will lookout for trips covering the planets . We sailed through gale 8/9 and rough seas and never really noticed , there was very little motion. The staff were disappointing however, alot of miserable faces and poorly trained restaurant staff, not good service alot of the time

I tried on two occasions to make contact the day I returned but the phone rang for sometime. Due to this I have made the decision to write but I need an email number.
