The one caution

7.0out of 10 for entertainment

Higher than only 21% of ships. The typical ship scores 7.60.

Everything else, in three lines

Family rates that highly too, but only 31 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.

Three are good without being remarkable: value (higher than 85% of ships), fitness (higher than 74% of ships) and public areas (higher than 61% of ships).

Five fall below the fleet: embarkation, cabins, service, dining and entertainment. They rate higher than 21% to 45% of ships.
