What Works & What Doesn't

In what might be termed a super-size "thermal suite" on other ships, the spa areas feature indoor lap pools surrounded by lounge chairs, large whirlpools, saunas, and steam rooms and—best of all—there's no additional charge to use any of it. Freestyle dining doesn't mean you can get a table in the main dining rooms at precisely the moment you want. However, waiting time can be eliminated by timing your arrival at nonpeak periods. Screens located throughout the ship illustrate the status (full, moderately busy, empty) and waiting time you can expect for each restaurant.
