We are considering the 22-night Farewell Voyage on Seabourn's Odyssey next Sept, from Seattle to Tokyo
(Yokohama). Lots of good Alaska ports, lots of days at sea, an unusual itinerary. We have sailed on the Seabourn Quest twice and where highly impressed. But this is their oldest ship, and the reviews on various forums are all over the map, from fabulous to terrible (for a luxury ship).
I'm not worried about the September Alaska/northern Pacific weather, which can be changeable; we rather like riding the high seas. I am concerned about the level of service from a departing crew, and the condition of the ship. Should I be, based on your recent experience with this ship or your experience with retired ships? I don't want to shell out $27,000 for two people and be disappointed.
Many thanks for any helpful replies.
