Disembarkation

4 out of 5

Horrible had to wake up at 4:00 am. To be off ship by 4:30 to 5:00 am. Due to low tide at port. No coffee or breakfast in terminal they had snacks but there was a mile long line for them. We waited for our luggage for about an hour and a half.very unorganized. It was a poor show!

If it was so horrible, why did you give it a 3.7 overall rating?
