Review summary

It was a great cruise. The only issue was that there was a lot of motion in the ocean a good portion of the cruise. Even with being on such a large ship, you could definitely feel the ship rock from time to time. We were so glad that we took our sea sickness medicine each day.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Getting to the terminal was crazy! The traffic was unbelievable! Once inside the terminal, check in went smoothly and quickly. We had 10:30-11:00 check in time and we were onboard by 10:45.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We had the ultimate dining package. 150 Central Park is our favorite restaurant fleet wide. We ate there 2 nights for dinner. The food was delicious and service outstanding. We had one lunch at Hooked and had great food and service. Breakfast at Park Cafe was very good each morning. We did not eat in the Windjammer or the Main Dining room.

Chop's Grille

We had lunch at Chops one day which was excellent. The steak burger was delicious. I wasn’t impressed with my dinner one night. My Caesar salad had a lot of lettuce that was going bad. My petite filet was not very tender. I did let our waiter know. My husband enjoyed his ribeye.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
It was delayed because it took longer to get the ship cleared to begin disembarkation. The lines were extremely long. Once the self assist people were off the ship, it went quickly.
