My wife and I celebrated our 25th anniversary on this cruise. We have not taken a cruise before, but have many friends who have. This cruise line and ship were highly recommended by our travel agent.
We flew into Ft. Lauderdale the night before the cruise left and stayed at the Ramada Airport. Our experience here was not good and unfortunately we had a very restless night. I would not recommend this Hotel.
Embarkation was a snap. We arrived at the port at 11:00 am and were on the ship by 11:50 am. We had lunch in the Windjammer and were in our stateroom by 1:10 pm. Our luggage arrived at 1:20 pm.
