Ship tip

Don't pay too much attention to the nit pickers who like to complain about everything. The ship was great, so was the staff, and everything about it!!!

Disembarkation

Very smoothly. Not much of a wait. Make sure you CHECK your baggage going and coming, and ask for a PORTER when you disembark. They will get you through the line QUICKER!

Breakfast in the Lido was outstanding! We dined in the more formal Destiny Restaurant each evening at 6:00. There were other good options for lunch. We have high standards, but they are not unreasonable. The food/dining was a great experience!
