Dave, some will proclaim that the drinking is to the excess. I
personally have never seen any. The one thing, however, is that the
cruises were all during the summer, when there were more families on
board. February may be different. May be different.
My main complaint is the smoking. Around the pool there's a smoking
and nonsmoking side, but sometimes smokers would come over to "our"
side. And the staff would do nothing to stop them, even when asked.
Service has been pretty to very good and the food has consistently
been top notch. I really look forward to sampling Celebrity if their
food is in fact better.
