Review summary

Great 1st. Cruise. Would change a few things but overall I was satisfied.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Very organized as far as getting on the ship. We had faster to fun pass and luggage should have been in our room when we arrived and it wasn't. We understood that it could have been delayed but it was very late when it came and they misplaced 2 bags.
