Worst thing was the cinema - nice seats, but way too few for a ship of that size. Had to turn up for the movie an hour early.

There were shows every evening and, from memory, the theatre is three-storey.

The biggest ship we have been on was the Celebrity Solstice, and it was a nightmare getting on and off as there were so many people and no real control system - just a free-for-all including queues in the stairwells.

Interesting. Future Cruise consultants said there were shows in evening, a passenger from Eurodam insisted just BB King's. Though this last cruise had many nights no show.

Went one time on majesty of the seas, since then I convinced my wife to stay with HAL. $200 down so we can back out. Just kope HAL keeps smaller ships, we like to cruise less often but longer. This was first cruise we could drive to1 no weight or luggage limit. Took carton of water to drind when on shore in Brazil. Heard rumors Massdam to be sold to Aida, along with sale of Staterndam and Veendam to P&O Australia.

Carnival Corp going way of GM, And we just made 5 Star.

Remember to buy 100 shares Carnival to get extra ship board credit, up to $250.
