Sail Date: Jul 2014

Embarkation was a breeze in Seward. We boarded as soon as ship was ready, about 11:30 am, found our cabin, ate lunch and then left the ship to see the Aquarium. The lunch was great in the Lido Restaurant and was the best meal we had. The food selection for the whole cruise was good but not as good as we had on Carnival a couple of years ago. I would rate it very good but not excellent.

The entertainment was excellent in the Showroom at Sea. Don't miss the Techspert Frank and his Digital Workshops. He gave us many useful computer tips but also helpful information about the upcoming port of call.

As is usual with cruise ships, they can't give you enough information on how to get to the jewelry shops in town or sell tours but they don't make sure you know how to find the free shuttles or the museums in town. One elderly couple I ran into had walked all over Haines looking for the Post Office because they had no idea there was a free shuttle. That is one of my main complaints with cruises.

Cabin Review

This cabin faces the rear on deck 6. It is roomy and a great location. It was quiet except for when the ship docked in Haines. Maneuvering in that port must have been harder and I think most cabins were affected by it. We loved that you could easily go out on deck and see the views from both sides, and be sheltered from the wind while sailing.
