We boarded the Glory at 11:30 AM on the 12th of July.Thanks to the great reviews from other members, we knew about boarding early and did so with ease. We went up to the Red Sail Restaurant and had a burrito from the burrito bar. Then we wandered the ship for awhile. We went on the Spa tour and my husband got to be a model for them....this meant he got a free hot shave/facial. Our room was ready at 1:30 as promised and the luggage (including my case of water that I had checked) arrived shortly thereafter.

We had an Oceanview Suite and it was beautiful. Tons of closet room, large bathroom and separate dressing room area. Our room steward was friendly and accommodating.

Dinner was the 6:00 seating in the Platinum dining room Our waitstaff of Genesis, Anthony and Angel were amazing. We were assigned to sit with another couple who were absolutely lovely and dinner conversation was quite pleasant. The buffet seemed kind of limited at lunch time, but the fish and chips were delicious and I also appreciated the ability to make a giant fresh veggie salad. Chicken nuggets from the grill were delicious and plentiful. There was a sushi bar open 3 out of 4 nights, but the line was always very long and I never got to try it. There was only one specialty restaurant. By the time I tried to make reservations on day 2 it was completely booked for the cruise. Read more
