My wife and I are both in the travel industry and have seen many ships, new and old. Yet we had not yet been on ship while it's out to sea, so we decided to take our first cruise for our honeymoon. We really liked The Sky when we saw it a few years back and since time and money were short this was the perfect fit.

We live only about an hour north of Miami, the drive down was probably the most stressful part of the whole experience. We used an offsite parking company, Premiere Parking. It was less than $40 for all 4 days. The parking lot was right off I-95 and very easy to find. We did not wait more than 5 minutes before we got shuttled to the ship, it's about a 5 min. drive. They dropped us right in front of the ship and we dropped our bags.

Check in was also very fast, as long as you do all the registration online before hand. 1 thing I do recommend is bring a pen with you. There were none to fill out the health questionnaire before check in. We got our room keys and were on the ship all within 10 mins. Cabins weren't ready yet but it was only 12:30. We grabbed some lunch at the garden cafe, aft end of the ship. We grabbed a chair and people watched for a bit. The pool was open and the music was playing, everyone was taking full advantage of the bar being open.

Cabin OI

Perfect location, not right next to the stairs but not a mile walk. Felt very little movement from the waves. Cabin was very clean and no notable damage to any part of the cabin. Only downside was the soap provided was not strong enough to wash of all the sun screen, so bring your own just to get extra clean.
