Sail Date: Dec 2012
Cabin: Balcony

After having sailed on the Tropical, Triumph, Fascination, and Conquest, we tried the Pride. Seeing how it was a close port to the state of West Virginia, we decided to give it a go for Christmas.

Port: If you are driving, this is the closest port that we've ever been to just off the interstate. It was a quick exit and one turn and you're there. Took about 20 minutes to park. While the parking was good, the embarking process was VERY, VERY slow. We decided not to arrive until 1:00ish to allow the crowd to thin out. But, that wasn't the case. With TSA agents yelling cellphones away or we'll take them... the people there were rude.

Eventually getting to the check-in was fine. The guy who issued us our boarding pass was not that friendly, but was all business.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin 8C

Balcony room was great

Lots of vibration on this ship (most I've ever seen or felt)

Beds were like a rock (not good like other ships)

Bring your own soda and tell the steward to put yours on ice each evening (works great)
