Miami: We stayed at Holiday Inn Port next to Bayside. It is Clean and close to all the fun of Bayside. Not a fancy hotel, but very clean. We did Hard Rock, Bubba Gumps, and shopped. We also did some relaxing from our Long flight from Washington ( the State ). This Hotel has a real plus, it has self service laundry. We did b2b cruises so this worked out great for me. Embarkment: at 11:15 the security let us start going to get seapass cards. and was placing Diamond & Plat's to area for boarding first. Just as I was heading to area, they got the ok to let us board. I was just right there, and was the first to be on board the Majesty. They told me, Welcome aboard, your the first on the ship... I replied.. " Did I win ? " lol..
Our Cruise Critic group was great. Now remember we not able for a M&M by Rccl being only a 4nt'r. But we had Three M&M's. All set by our group. The first was planned for sailaway. It was fun.. and we were off to sea as a group. The second was planned for breakfast at 9:00 am, the next morning. This did not work out too well. As we used the main dining for this meeting. And they would not let us all sit together if we did not have the group all together at the moment. So please if you plan this.. Use Windjammer area.. Then our Third M&M was set up by Nancy and Rccl. She was great about getting the strings pulled with Rccl and Rccl even gave us a big sheet cake and juices. We had about 35 at our Non M&M .... and we shared our real names and and we had a blast during the whole cruise.
We did Atlantis Casino again but we used the water taxi. If you are able to walk about one mile and enjoy walking this is good way to save a few dollars for the slots. But for me I'll be using the taxi service from now on.
