We were a group of 8 and ranged in age from 2 to 70. We chose this cruise because it left out of Boston, and we live about 15 minutes from the port. Because of the children we had early seating.
My father was recovering from recent surgery, and the cruise line was very accommodating, even loaning us a wheelchair for use in the ports when it became apparent that he would not be able to walk on his own for any kind of distance.
We loved the food and the entertainment on the Jewel. I don't believe we missed a show. Some were so good we saw them twice.
