Enchantment of the Seas January 20-25 2007.

What a time! My husband says this is the way to go for vacation. This was our very first ever cruise, and we are ready to go back. We had the help of my brother and sister-in-law in making the decision to go on this cruise as we went with the group they had cruised with before. It was kind of a hard decision as the planning started over a year prior to the cruise itself, and that seemed like a long time away. It was all worth it!

We booked with the travel agent that the group was with even though it was in a different state and it worked great. We were able to book our own flights and save some money too. We flew to Fort Lauderdale the night before the cruise and stayed in a hotel that was about 15 minutes from port. The cost of the hotel was a bit high for the quality of the room, but you paid for the fact that you were on the beach, not that big of a deal though. The next morning we had time to catch breakfast and do a little shopping(as we had forgotten a few items), and walk the beach. The travel agent had all of our shuttles and transfers set up ahead of time. For the most part they were all good, with the exception of SuperShuttle. This company did not communicate very well the fact that our service was pre-paid from hotel to ship and ship to airport, which caused delay and confusion both times. Read more
