Review summary
Our 14th cruise, and 3rd on the Legend. We had one major disappointment we feel Carnival could have handled better. The islands of St Martin and Barbados were both celebrating local holidays and nearly all the shops were closed. We should have been advised prior to sailing. Better yet, why wasn't the schedule modified to arrive at the ports in a different order? We arrived at the port in Ft Lauderedale at about 2PM to avoid the long lines and it worked perfectly. Our longest wait was less than two minutes. We just walked from station to station and were on the ship and in our cabin in less than 10 minutes. We suggest that you arrive very early or around 2PM. All boarding between 12:30 & 2:00 is difficult with most all the cruise lines.Ship experiences
