Had a great time, the Sunrise was an excellent ship. Other than rough seas a couple days the trip was every thing I could have wanted

Overall a great experience for my first cruise, can't wait to plan my next one

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Had a Marathon going on in NYC which made getting to the terminal a nightmare. Once there we zipped right through.

The food was top notch, going to miss Guy's Burger Joint. Lines at the buffet weren't bad at all the biggest hassle was finding a table

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

I was in cabin 7206 it was spacious plenty of storage good views out the large window. Only down side was that the temperature was pretty much controlled by what ever it was outside

Ship tip

After having your first Guy's Burger just explore and look for ducks,lots to do and see

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

Getting off the ship was as easy and flowed well. We had breakfast and then just waited for them to call our zone. My only real complaint was that on embarkation day port authority security confiscated my Leatherman and said that it would be given to ship security and I would get it back at the end of the trip. At the end of the cruise I checked with security and they said they never received it,so I get to replace my Leatherman.
