Review summary

⏺Going by on-board booze prices rum-runners (Amazon) are a great purchase. Also buy clips (potato chip bag clips would do) to secure towel to chairs.

I doubt very much a CEO of a fortune 100 would be riding on the Dawn. I imagine they have more money to play with. But I see your point. Small business owners might need to stay in contact.

that's very narrow minded...... people have families with elderly or ill relatives, business OWNERS doing payroll or addressing clients, self employed people, students, etc that can escape for a week to recharge their batteries but still need to be available...... you're lucky you have none of that and a job that doesn't require anything from you when you're out of the office for extended time...... . I don't consider a CEO of a Fortune 100 company who needs to make deals that impacts 100,000 employees lives or a single parent who saved for 10 years to finally take a vacation and wants to talk to their child at the grandparent's house "under anyone's thumb"

- agree with what you said about cell phone roaming and wifi prices but your comment was "cell phones won't work"... which is incorrect. - and everyone's life and circumstances are different..... some people are only able to go on vacation because of the ability to stay connected to family, work, etc...... not everyone has the absolute ability to disconnect as others can.

Cell phones DO work on the Dawn... either via iConcierge or roaming on your wireless carrier (prices vary so check with them)

âºIf you are non-USA citizen you go through immigration on-board on last morning. 715am. However, if you show up at that time you will be in line for 1h30min, spoiling your breakfast time. Get there EARLY!

âºRooms have 1 110v (USA) socket and 1 220v (UK) socket. Bring a power bar (not a surge-protected one as they burst into flames).

âºBermuda itself is not all that interesting unless you are into water sports. Also, do not expect much shopping. Very expensive. Real Bermuda shorts go from 50-200 bucks.

âºSince cellphones wont work purchase walkie-talkies to keep in contact with your family.

âºNo free ice coffee so take a travel mug to make your own from their hot coffee plus ice.

âºNo pre-booking needed to eat in Venetian or Aqua. If they are too full you get free champagne while you wait!
