We've been on many Royal Caribbean Cruises, this one was the most interesting cruise ever. This was our first time departing from Bayonne. In my opinion, the check in area, process, VIP area, as well as the process for loading the bus was very confusing.
There were many area locals on the ship, many of which have only cruised on that ship, a sense of entitlement from those cruisers was thick throughout the cruise (in some cases, people were darn right rude, I witnessed a 3 kids one day throwing ice cream cones around the pool area, they were local). On 3 different occassions, the toilets were shut off for at least one hour each time, when I asked why, I was told due to things being flushed that shouldn't be flushed. I thought of those three boys (although, I know others could be responsible).
In comparison to other RCCL cruises, I found onboard activities to be limited with unfavorable times, most of which occurred in earlier morning/evening hours. Maybe because there were also many seniors onboard and events and timing thereof were planned with their enjoyment in mind.
