An excellent product for british cruisers, who do not enjoy long flights. Although not as glitzy as carnival this ship provides great value for money.

Very easy ship to navigate around, not more than 1200 passengers on a ship designed for more always somewhere you could find to be alone. As we love casinos, my only grouse is the casino on the Spirit is tiny, only one roulette table and always crowded, large cinema, lots of bars, great show in a two level theatre.

Outstanding, having travelled on various ships and paid twice the price we found the cuisine was excellent. The food did have a British influence,however choice quality, service and quantity, can not be faulted. Both the restaurant and buffet always had a huge choice and was served superbly.

We were on deck 3 in a L shaped cabin that was far bigger than any we had been in before, fittings were first class with more storage than we needed. The cabin steward kept the cabin spotless, the bathroom was large for a ship and had all you could want. There was a problem with the toilets not flushing a few occasions but was quickly rectified.

The cruise director richard sykes must be the most versatile we have ever met. He sang at the piano, performed in the excellent show, he also organized the quiz and sail away party. This man would be a great asset to any cruise line

Plenty of choice we did our own thing at most ports, we fell in love with Tarrogona in Spain also Corsica. The trips did not seem to expensive.

All age groups not many children. I think cruising is more for adults and kids should go to Disney.
