Additional details
We flew into Orlando and stayed the night for our 19th Anniv then on day of Embarkation we took a shuttle to Port Canaveral. The ride was about 45 mins or so to the port. The line was pretty long to get in to the actual port for drop off. Once inside the port our luggage was unloaded and we got in line to start heading inside the building. The lines were super long but once we got inside, because of our Gold status, we were put right through and checked in at the podium with security, then through the detector machines and then up stairs to get our Seapass cards. This process was very fast for us because of being Gold members. We then found out cabin and dropped off the carry on and headed to the windjammer to eat.
This ship is amazing and we loved it. This was our 2nd cruise, the 1st being on Enchantment of the Seas. There is no comparison! We loved our 1st cruise but we loved this one even better, the only down side was all the kids on this cruise and 215 girls from Brazil running around half naked and under the age of 16 put a bad taste in our mouth! Very rude and crude they were.
The weather the entire cruise was beautiful except for the last night at sea when heading back to port, it was pouring rain but then cleared up later in the evening.
Cabin Review
Our cabin was on Deck 9 and was a room with a balcony and sofa. Im not sure what category it is. Our stateroom attendant was Iwayan and he was amazing! We had towel animals almost everyday and he went above and beyond to make us happy. He even made a special towel for us for our anniversary with a special note on his personal card that was attached. The cabin was large and comfy and the bathroom had a shower that had doors instead of a curtain which was a plus. We loved the balcony since this was a 1st for us. Balcony's are more $$$$ but worth it I think because of being able to relax in private.
