Anyone on the Jewel?

[dpepper64]

We are due to be on the Jewel in 3 weeks.  I was wondering if anyone is on the Jewel currently or just off.  Was wondering how the ship looks and what the percentage of passengers where on the ship.  Any other comments would be helpful.   Everyone stay safe and thank you for the help.

I was just on the Jewel for two weeks and wrote a live report every day. Had a great experience despite many shortcomings with the first cabin and food.  Not a lot to do in the ports this year.  The ship went into dry dock for a second sprucing up during the pandemic shutdown.  Cabins and hallways have been renovated, but both our cabins had a lot of flaws and it was evident the quality of workmanship was poor.  There were 740 passengers our first week and 650 the second week.  We were told in the Q and A session with the officers that the ship would be traveling with approx 1000-1400 passengers for the next month then the numbers begin increasing steadily.
