Embarkation

5 out of 5

Great and Easy! Don’t eat lunch before you board. Plenty of options. Luggage was in room in under an hour. We took two bottles of wine, soda and tonic for the vodka I bought prior to cruise and delivered to room Lasted right at two weeks

Ship tip

Was very stable in rough seas. I get sea sick easily and had no problems. We had winds up to 50mph and seas as high as 10-12 feet. I would recommend to bring your own Dramamine because you don’t want to take a chance of getting sick and missing out on the fantastic food options
