adults & 4 kids. Overall it was a great cruise. The casino was very Smokey - more than any cruise we’ve ever been on. Disembarkation was a nightmare!

Book a cabana early on. It’s very hot and there is very little shade.

We rented a couple of cabanas at Margaritaville. Definitely a lifesaver.

Rented an ocean cabana and loved it! Fun little water park close by.

Thank you for the tip. At this point the 11:50 flight is all that is available (non stop) I’m hoping to get off the ship as early as possible If we carry our own luggage do we have a chance?

1150am fight on Disembark day?hmm.thats really cutting it close. That flight time may need to be pushed back later, or you will need to get off the ship no later than 7am.
