I would like to say your ship is beautiful and there’s lots to do, and we had a great time while on it. The only thing I would like to complain about is the main diningroom in the evening, it’s a beautiful roon and the staff was great but what I was really disappointed with was the seating arrangements, even though we reserved a table before we got on the ship and again when we arrived and had to do it every night and was told at the time we reserved it we could have that table and we always ended up getting a different table we didn’t like. What was the point of reserving a table and then telling us yes for that table and ending up not getting it. We were very, very frustrated by the fourth day and because of the that I don’t see us coming back. Very disappointed with our dinner arrangement every night. The waiters in the main dinningroom were ” great” They had nothing to do with what happened every night. we were on other ships in the past and when we reserved a table for the week or as long as we were there, we never had this problem and I hope we never do again. Thanks for your time. 🙂
