The Jewel Cruise was a rip off. Promo site showed seating for dining. None was available. Food was served late and very unorganized. No announcements were made about the delays in serving the food. No coat check was available and it was a very cold night. I purchased my tickets on the day of the cruise. You would think they would stop selling the tickets since the weather was a factor. Too many people crammed into the main ship area with no seating or coat check. Getting a drink at the only bar with 2 bartenders was a hassle. I ended up leaving the ship before it sailed. The promoter would not refund any part of the 175 per ticket that I paid. I would not recomend this event to anyone. Worse NYE time ever.
