We found the staff on Allure of the Seas — including waiters, room stewards and the workers in the ship’s spa, fitness area and at the guest relations staff — all very friendly and polite. Since the ship is so large, it can be a challenge for the staff to remember your name—unless you become a regular at a bar or restaurant. But the professional staff responds to needs and inquiries quickly, and any problems we had were resolved promptly.
Daily shows with the Cruise Director are shown on TV, which is a good way to get information about the day’s activities. You can also use Allure’s Cruise Compass to find about events, and, if you need more information, the guest services counter opens at 7 am and is staffed all day. There’s also a future cruises office where you can purchase special cruise sales for your next trip on the Allure of the Seas.
