Smaller than other ships in the fleet, there are still plenty of options, including several alternative dining restaurants (for which there is an extra charge). There are no butlers in the top suites, unlike on some rival ships. There are self-service launderettes, but there is a charge.
Service is good, but passengers are not escorted to cabins on arrival.
Suitability
The ship’s flexible dining and entertainment options mean it’s a great product for those who hate the regimented cruise experience of other ships. Good family facilities too.
This is the US-based sister company to P&O Cruises, so perhaps not a good option for people who are fans of UK-tailored cruises.
Hints & Tips

The Movies Under The Stars open-air cinema is popular.
Weddings can be filmed by web cam so family and friends can watch at home.
There is an extra charge for ice cream and other snacks outside of the main restaurants.
