Sunshine mostly good but

[CdrescherRBL152]

Sailed the Sunshine for the first time March 5 thru March 13. Although the cruise was great there were a few things a missed. First given the way the ship is cut up would have liked more signs to help you get where you are going. Wish the Buffett was bigger. But most troubling at every meal in the MDR at least 1 of our orders was wrong. For exp. second formal night. Asked for French fries never got them until we were ordering desert and had asked about them 3 times at that point. But heck I did win twice at bingo for a total of $335. And came out up $400 in the casino. Again great cruise loved the ports and already looking for 2018. We cruise every other year.

You guys got to try out the new menus, that was the first for the Sunshine, maybe that was the problem ??

WE sail in 3 weeks, hope the bugs are worked out by then .. lol :)

 

This will be the biggest ship for us so far, were the comedy shows good, and did you try the shake spot out ??

Very frustrating when they can't get your dinner orders right! No matter WHICH menu they had...they TAKE your order...but can't seem to bring what you order....that's a waiter problem...not a menu problem!

Ouch, no wonder I don't play bingo.

 

Thanks for the report, hopefully they get everything worked out by Dec.

We had Your Time Dining on the Sunshine with a different wait team every night, an interesting experiment. Huge variations in service, which made me realize how two reviews of the same MDR can be so different. One wait team did get every order wrong -- I bet you had the same team. We laughed about it, but it would have been frustrating if it happened every night.

No, it won't be the biggest ship you've been on. The Valor is bigger than Sunshine.

With all the computerization of the current ships, I would like to see wait people have an iPad ordering system! They can take your cocktail order, food order, and wine order sending it immediately to the correct location. There is nothing more frustrating that having your waiter "hunt down" a cocktail drink person. And things could be speeded up so much at the pool if the servers had a little better connection computer wise. Your drinks could be ready before your server gets back to the bar!

Bar service has always been terrible in the MDR.
