Great, everything went smooth and quick.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

I liked the ship and food/drink options. Downside on cheers package is if you drink whiskey on the rocks they will only allow one small shot in a glass filled with ice. You're better off purchasing a bottle and pouring your own.

It lacked good activites for the kids and an additon to an outdoor theater like the other ships would be nice.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

Excursion was cancelled again here. There is really nothing to do at Freeport unless you book an excursion. I will only book cruises that don't go there from now on.

Great port with lots to do that you don't have to book excursions for right off the ship.
