Reviewer read

One of the fleet's best ships. It falls behind on entertainment.

Wind Spirit rates higher overall than 98% of the ships we track. Value and service are exceptional. The weak spot is entertainment.

The one caution

7.3out of 10 for entertainment

Higher than only 38% of ships. The typical ship scores 7.60.

Everything else, in three lines

Three categories rate in the top tenth of the fleet — value, service and dining.

Three are good without being remarkable: embarkation (higher than 84% of ships), public areas (higher than 80% of ships) and cabins (higher than 78% of ships).

Fitness sits in the middle of the fleet too, but only 91 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.

One falls below the fleet: entertainment (higher than only 38% of ships).

Covered in full above.

Disembarkation, Ship quality and Activities have too few ratings on this ship to compare with the fleet, so they are shown without a comparison.
