Review summary

We had bad colds most of this trip which didn't help. Also our timing was very bad because the water was very rough 2/3 of the trip. In fact the main reason we went was to see Half Moon Cay and we couldn't go ashore due to the tenders and the rough water.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

The experience at Port Canaveral was a good one. We did have Faster to Fun and had a little wait because we were early.

Food and Dining

The MDR was not to bad, however we have had better. We did eat at the steak house which was awesome as was the Japanese restaurant. We ate breakfast and lunch at the Asian and Italian restaurant which was very good as well.

If you purchase faster to the fun you get priority boarding, be among the first to get off ship if there is a tender port and the best benefit is your room will be ready when you board the ship. No waiting around! Well worth the money in my opinion. Then when your vacation is over, be among the first people off the ship.
