We've been privileged to experience both non-Retreat and Retreat accommodation. I'm sorry the person who has, by his own comment, not sailed on X and is commenting as through he has, that he shares an opinion on the clientele. There have been very few occasions of rudeness, thoughtlessness, or manners other than what we enjoy in our day-to-day life. IMO those comments are rude and classless and insinuate that those who do not share Retreat level are beneath him/her and that those who are taking advantage of the move up offer will water down the upper class he is used to. Please enjoy your cruise(s), walk the ship in areas other than the Retreat, and you may find very pleasant, kind, and interesting folks no matter which accommodation they have chosen then come back to us and perhaps apologize for presuming otherwise.
