Cabin: Inside Occasion: Birthday
First of all the itinery was fantastic, but the flights on air france were horrendous the ship was clean but very tired looking the waiters, bar staff, and cabin crew were brilliant although all were unhappy wtih their work, no officers were in sight until after the concordia disaster, and the matre de's were a joke. THEY WERE VERY UNHELPFUL AND JUST DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW if you said anything the poor waiters or bar staff got into trouble. All in all if the places visited had not been fab it would havw been a disaster. As it is I will not be sailing with costa again
