The one caution
6.6out of 10 for fitness
Higher than only 11% of ships. The typical ship scores 7.35.
Six are good without being remarkable: disembarkation, service, dining, embarkation, entertainment and activities. They rate higher than 55% to 74% of ships.
Family sits in the middle of the fleet too, but only 55 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.
Five fall below the fleet: value, ship quality, public areas, cabins and fitness. They rate higher than 11% to 43% of ships.
Cabin grade barely matters here. The inside, oceanview, balcony and suite grades all score between 8.37 and 8.55. Pick on price and position, not on rating.
Reviewers named 12 places by name. These 3 are the ones where knowing changes anything — the other 7 are all liked by 58% to 87% of the people who mentioned them.
First-time cruisers (285 of 329), seniors (131 of 157), couples (47 of 52), solo travelers (36 of 41), large groups (21 of 25) and budget travelers (15 of 17).
No group described it as a poor fit.
