Cruise or Concentration Camp? Five Thousand Sardines Aboard
Imagine expecting a week of 'breathtaking views' and ending up in a sardine simulator. Our reporter's maiden voyage on Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas turned into a masterclass in line-standing and people-watching: 'I spent more time waiting in lines than enjoying the ship,' plus battling crowds that made communal decks feel like 'crowded malls.' Pools? Packed. Chairs? Saved by towels like Olympic seats. The only victory? Dawn walks on the deck before fellow cruisers swarmed in. Truly, an adventure in patience, not paradise.
