Review summary

Wonderful cruise. Honestly, haven’t had a bad cruise yet! I’m not working, cleaning or cooking! Enjoy your time at sea!!!!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

First time out of terminal 5. Separate area for suites with refreshments and plenty of seating. Nice place to wait your turn to board.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Chop's Grille

5 out of 5

We LOVE Chop’s! Our shrimp cocktail, steaks and dessert were fantastic!

Jamie's Italian

5 out of 5

The meat plank at Jamie’s is off the chart! Only thing is, I wish the chairs were more comfortable. Other than that food is wonderful and so is the service!

Main Dining Room

5 out of 5

We ate in MDR for 2 of our dinners, but had every breakfast here. So nice to start your day nice and slow! Omelette cooked to perfection and dinner was delicious!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

We didn’t have any trouble leaving, however same couldn’t be said for those with later check-in and had to park on higher floor of garage. Took some people up to 90 minutes to leave the garage! A fight even broke out and the police were called! Important take away? DO YOUR CHECK-IN EARLY TO GET EARLY BOARDING TIME TO GET LOWER FLOOR IF GOING OUT OF TERMINAL #5!!!
