★★★☆☆

written by on 13/06/2010

Both of us went on this ship last year on a slightly different ittinerary, and couldnt have faulted any aspect. This year however was one big let down. Our cabin was fine, deck 4 and a bit bigger than deck 8 last year which was a nice surprize for us. The cabin boy was fine, if not a little too forward and a bit over familiar i thought, although definetly in a well mannered way. Food was ok, with what wasnt used up at one meal being reinvented for the next.That sort of thing. A lot of gossip about cutbacks seemed to be the normal chit chat from everyone, who wrestled bits of info from crew members. Entertainment defo not as good as last year, and the entertainment guys didnt seem to interact with the passengers like they did last year. Also the captain wasnt as chirpy this year either we thought. Last year he would have boomed over the tannoy with something quirky but this year he spoke only as he entered and left ports as if with a heavy heart. Even he seemed to have taken on this depressing air that seemed to hang over the ship. On the morning when we left the ship at Palma his tannoy must have ceased up, as we never even got a cheery goodbye from him. Dismal.
