GGuest UserVery good, affordable, good food on board, reasonable Longwan Cruise (the cruise service represented by the home port of Tianjin International Cruise in China) has been continuously improving in service quality in recent years, and has gradually become one of the cruise travel options favored by domestic tourists. The following objective evaluation of its ”quality service” from multiple dimensions for reference:
- -
### **1. Hardware facilities and comfort**
- **Modern cruise facilities**: cruises represented by ”China Merchants Yidun” pay attention to cabin design, room layout is reasonable (especially balcony rooms), equipped with high-quality bedding, bathroom facilities, some suites provide butler service.
- **Public area experience**: Deck pool, theater, spa center, gym and other facilities are complete, some cruise ships also have duty-free shops, children's playground, to meet the needs of families and different age groups.
- **Health and safety**: strictly implement international cruise health standards (such as CLIA certification), high frequency of cleaning in public areas, and standardization of emergency drill procedures.
- -
### **2. Food & beverage services**
- **Diversified selection**: Chinese and Western buffets, specialty restaurants (such as Japanese food, hot pot, etc.), some routes will be integrated into local dishes (such as seafood theme meals may be available on routes from Tianjin Port).
- **Service quality**: The restaurant waiter is friendly and responds quickly, and can cooperate well with special dietary needs (such as vegetarian food and allergies). High-end class guests can enjoy exclusive restaurant service.
- **Inadequate**: There may be queues in the cafeteria during peak season, and some free drinks options are limited.
- -
### **3. Entertainment and activities**
- **Richness**: Daily arrangements for performances (singing, dancing, magic, etc.), theme parties (such as captain's dinner), interactive games, etc., suitable for families and young groups.
- **Cultural experience**: some routes combine destination cultural design activities (such as Japanese routes offering kimono experiences, tea ceremony performances).
- **Child services**: There is a custody center, special personnel organize children's activities, free parents' energy.
- -
### **4. Destination Services (shore excursion)**
- **Itinerary planning**: Provide multiple upstream routes (such as popular attractions in Japan and South Korea), accompanied by Chinese tour guides, the itinerary schedule is reasonable.
- **Flexibility**: You can choose to travel with a group or freely, but you need to pay attention to some ports far from the city, and you need to plan your transportation in advance.
- **Improvement point**: Some attractions may be crowded during peak season, and diversion measures need to be optimized.
- -
### **5. Quality of service personnel**
- **Language ability**: Chinese crew members account for a high proportion, communication barrier-free; foreign crew members are fluent in English, and some master basic Chinese.
- **Service attitude**: General enthusiasm and initiative, especially for the elderly, children and other groups, the problem response efficiency is high.
- **Professional training**: from boarding and guidance to room service, the process is standardized, and the details are in place (such as birthday surprises, anniversary arrangements, etc.).
- -
### **6. Cost-effectiveness and convenience**
-**Price advantage**: Compared to international cruise brands (such as Royal Caribbean), the same route price is more competitive, often with Early Bird Promotion or family packages.
- **Home port convenience**: Tianjin, Shanghai and other home port transportation facilities are mature, providing luggage direct hanging, rapid customs clearance and other services, reducing the cumbersome process of boarding.
- -
###**Potentially insufficient**
- **High season experience**: When the passenger flow is dense during holidays, some services (such as restaurants and entertainment facilities) may wait.
-**Route innovation**: international route selection is relatively limited, in-depth tour products need to be enriched.
**Network fee**: Wi-Fi charges are higher on board and signal stability varies by sea.
