Review summary

Cruise was great. Would like changes to kids camp before i schedule another. Enjoyed self with every thing else

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Normal happy with process but this one not as good as other faster to the fun. It was a very rushed experience. Needless to say i was really looking forward to the group on board photo.not so much. While faster to the fun is the way to go this was my grandkid cruise. I had 3 rooms with children. Lady ushering us separated family so we weren't together to do the on board photo. She separated me from my 78 yr old wheelchair mom who was ushered a head of us yet arrive to room later. She was not happy with experience.

Do not like the scheduling of pick up kids during day. Felt like I spent day watching clock instead of relaxing. I know some parents would leave kids all day & that should be their option. I plan time with kids according to the activities given to us but instead i was made to do their schedule instead of mine.
