# previous cruises: 5
Date of Trip: July 21, 2002
Itinerary: Alaska-Inside Passage
This is a very sharp ship. Whether you do the inside passage, or the Western Caribbean out of Miami, you cannot go wrong. Quality all the way, on par, and in some cases better than Holland America.
Lots of room on this ship. We never had to look to find an empty spot, and the ship was at capacity. The Navigator Lounge is great if you want to look out without being in the weather.
Dining room food and service were superb. Alternative dining and lunch and breakfast buffets offered a lot of choices. They were also served on trays with linen napkins and real cutlery.
Inside cabin Vista deck. A lot of storage, quiet with a large shower. Kept very clean. They also supply robes for your use while on board. Bring you own hair dryer though. The one in the bathroom was weak.
Did not do any shows. Lounge entertainment was very good.
Lots of games to keep you occupied. Spa is supposed to be one of the best but it's expensive.
All types of people from all walks of life. Median age about 45.
