We cruise her in 5 days...we booked the Chops lunch for boarding day so we'll be heading to the restaurant. We've been on Voyager more than all the other RCCL's ships, 8 times...but haven't been on her since her dry dock. Can't wait to see all the new stuff.
On this cruise our head waiters name was Jun. But we also just sailed on Voyager end of August and had Mario. Jun was still there. Both were on point with food allergies along with our waiter. In fact, we've been on a few cruises on Royal and have always had a great experience with awareness of food allergies.
Worst vacation ever on that ship. Half the toilets don't work so if you need to go to the restroom most the time you will wind up having to go all the way back to your room or wait in line forever. The wait to ride the slide was 45 minutes long due to them only having 1 out of 2 operational then when you do get to ride it you have to physically scoot yourself all the way down it. Those pools are very tiny, made for maybe 5 or 6 people in each. When you get out there its so crowded there is not 5 sqft to swim in. Everything is an advertisement everywhere you look, they even call the room non stop trying to sell you stuff and you cant unplug the phone. Some of this was just bad luck, like being on there with over 1000 kids onboard helped completely ruined the experience. Good luck getting food when 200 teenagers are just standing in front of all the buffets doing nothing. Everywhere is over crowded. The excursions are not worth doing at all. You start off in the morning for the 1.5 hour wait to get off the boat itself not to mention the multiple lines you will wait in to get to where your excursion is taking place. We did a dolphin encounter and it was 1.5 hours to get off the ship, then we waited 30 minutes in a taxi, then we waited 30 minutes for a locker, then after that another 45 minutes to get our life jackets and then the last line was on the pier to get to our spot. all that time miserably waiting sucked the fun right out of it. After your done its nothing but trying to sell you over and over. 140 dollars for a few pictures then the tour guide starts trying to sell cheap jewelry. Then they want tips for what you already paid for. The whole walk back your harassed by every shop keeper there to buy buy buy. There is nothing enjoyable about it. When you get back to the ship it is just more of the same. Every time you turn around its someone trying to sell you a 500 dollar massage or a 400 dollar knock off purse or an 300 dollar bottle of perfume you can pick up online for 20 bucks. The shows were not great and all over crowded. The ice skating show had no room, I managed to get a spot where I could see but then people showed up and completely blocked my view of the entire performance. They purposely force you to walk through the casino to get to shows, so if your not interested in gambling its thrown in your face and if you are interested in gambling there are a thousand people walking through the casino your trying to have fun in going to other places periodically. The food was not great, the "my time" dinner was ok though it took forever and left you hungry afterwards. The pizza at the cafe is worst pizza on earth and the drinks all around the ship are very weak for 4-8x the amount you would pay in a bar. They do have beer but tend to run out rapidly. We went 2 months ago for a 5 day cruise and thanks to this ship we will never cruise again. I spent like 450$ on extras with my sea pass but when I got home they added an additional 1753$ of unauthorized charges. Ive spent nearly a day on the phone and they will not refund it. I want my money back do NOT go on this ship!!

Iputu is an awesome waiter! I Hope we get him next month too.
we're so looking forward to being on Voyager in 2026! Booked and ready!
We will be on that ship in 2 weeks and my wife is celiac. Do you by chance remember the head waiters name? Sounds like he was on his game :)

Wow! Complain much? Jesus! Try to enjoy life a little more instead of complaining about EVERYTHING! Glad I’m not traveling with you! 🙄
Yea, you have to be smart to go on a cruise, if you struggle reading or doing simple math, DONT GO!!!! Good post man.
The words Smart and Cruise do not mix. But I know your comment is sponsored by the cruise line just like this video. @@dad9436
