Review summary

 I was invited on this cruise to celebrate my 61st birthday early.  After checking in, the first problem that I had was that $300.00 was withdrawn from my bank account supposedly to cover room charges.  After I had to fight to get my money back, we were told that we would receive a bottle of wine and robes in the room, it took two days to receive it.  I enjoyed most of the cruise until the last stop in Florida, and everyone had to deport in Orlando.  As I was going back on to the ship, I tripped and fell down over one of the metal strips on the ramp going to the boat.  Beverly Bryan, a crew member, witnessed it, walked me up to the check-in desk, and reported it to them.  I was asked to go to the medical clinic, but they would only examine me if I paid $149.00, but I did not have it because I was still waiting for the bank to straighten out my account, so I reported it to guest services.  I also gave the captain, Vue, a Christmas card, which included a statement about what happened.  To this day, not one person has reached out to me to see how I am doing, and I am still unable to walk without pain in my knees.  I don't think that I will ever cruise on this ship again.  Cruisers beware!

Port Canaveral, Florida

That is where I fell and hurt myself. I had been having a good time going to Wal-mart, and having lunch at a restaurant right across from the peer.
