Rerouted Itinerary Fortunate or not

I liked

Cruise went ahead to Greece instead of visiting Cyprus, Israel and Egypt due to ongoing terror war.

I didn't like

many return ports when others could be included rather than what we do on every Costa cruise. New ports of call required

Comment

Wonderful Butler ( Peter) and suite attendants (Hanifin and Sravan) with one of the best Club restuartants service wise by Risus and Leonora. Sadly the Cruise director and entertainment team where way below average. e used to exceptional Cruise directors in Sabrina and Luiggi . The Ship is in need of essential dry dock and refurb (espeically the suites they very outdated now). The cruise director mis read the passengers and hence a lot of non participation.
