Ship Quality

She's a big ship; you'll do more walking than normal. We didn't mind but those disabled or not into fitness may have issues.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We upgraded to an exterior with window; room was adequate with plenty of storage.

Ship tip

Plan ahead, make reservations, and don't go to the same dining room twice. There's lots to do and lots to see before you even get to the first port.

Ports of call

New York, New York

Bahamas was unexpectedly awesome; we thought with the summer storms it would impede tourism but they were nice.

Port Canaveral, Florida

Gotta hit Cocoa Beach and the pier, beach, and beach bar. The fish tacos, gator bites, and drinks are all awesome!

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas
