Review summary

Had a great time, can’t wait till next time. Learned many lessons. Every R/C employee had a good attitude. Looking foward to the next one. The best advice I can share is you must understand “ ITINERARY SUBJECT TO CHANGE “ and if it changes you will not get a refund. Keep that in mind and don’t let I ruin your cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Did not spend much time in our cabin. There was to much to do. The cabin was fine, a little tight. Beautiful ocean view.

Ship tip

On the night before sea days take 10 minutes to look over the cruise compass. When you wing it like we did you may miss out on activities you may enjoy. Secondly, if you would like to enjoy a cocktail and not have to purchase the drink package, on day 3 they sell a 10 drink card for 79.00. You can use it on drinks that cost up to $13.00

Falmouth, Jamaica

Took a tour of the town. Made me thankful for the United States. Hurricanes changed our itinerary, Falmouth was OK.

Disembarkation

Carry of your luggage if possible, if not get a porter. We didn’t do either and a root canal would have been preferable.

For our upcoming cruise we have the ultimate dining package. How was scheduling? Did they accommodate show time starts? Did you take advantage of sea day lunches too? Is it loaded on your seapass card?
