Review summary

Ran aground in the Dominican Republic. Stuck there for 4 days before being flown home back to Orlando airport by charter planes airport. The disembarkation was disorganized took hours of waiting in hallways and staircases. The bus to airport was dirty. The airport was so small it didn't even have a restaurant. Charter plane was old and cramped and attendants were very sullen.
