Don't go on a ship just out of dry dock. I know what everyone meant on chat, when they said,, "hope they get the kinks worked out"!

First let guess go on Elation. When book a cruise, don't give them and older ship that didn't have the upgrades you were promised. I understand about weather but cruise should have been canceled instead of lower class ship

Plan your own activities...every activity they have seemed to be designed to sell you something. If it wasn't, it was a boring game show or offensive. (The married couples thing with Kevin was horrid. Why ANYONE would submit their wife to that for a bottle of champagne is beyond me!)

Carry your own bags off, then give a nice tip to the porter when you get into the main disembarkation/customs plaza (the porters will be waiting inside once you get into the single file customs line, which is really looonnnnnngggggg.) The porter will get you thru security in a flash and take your bags to your car, which will save you about 30-60 minutes of waiting to get through customs.

If you are going to eat a lot of food, and if you are able, use the stairs Always. I ate a lot but did not suffer with extra pounds when I left. Cause I used the stairs and not the elevators.

If you are use to the newest and greatest, don't expect the same every boat is different so find the fun .

Be prepared for a great time! Don’t be shy and just let loose! The cheers drink package is the way to go, that purchase also gives you access to water bottles, sodas, and energy drinks. Worth every penny.

even though you pay for gratuity when you book your trip, get ready to pay more on the boat. it isn't all included like it says.

Loved the days at sea, and the beach at Half Moon Cay. This cruise is designed to let me slow down and relax. Lots of options on the ship for entertainment as well. a good experience around every corner. Loved the sandwich bar!!! And LOVED LOVED LOVED the Piano Bar!!

I was not happy about a lot of things, but I guess by the time someone else I know is ready to take a cruise these issues will have been addressed. As for me I may not go on Elation again.

Perfect for the first timer. If you have experienced other cruise lines with more amenities, you are then spoiled, and could be let down with this ship. For a regular guy like me, it was perfect.

Explore the whole boat. There was a whole deck at the front of the ship we discovered. It was half way through our cruise, I totally recommend the Veranda level.
