This was my 5th short cruise. Prior to this one I have cruised twice with Carnival and twice with Royal. My friend and I were looking for an inexpensive short getaway from the long Boston winter so we decided to go with the Sky due to pricing and availability. Normally we just book and interior state room because we only use the room to sleep and shower. This time we upgraded to a port hole room so that we could get the drink package included. This was well worth it. The porthole was much larger than expected, basically is was a round window so we were very pleased. The room was nice and clean.

Although this was an older ship we were very happy with it in general but my biggest complain was that they were always working on the pool deck. Sometimes it was the flooring and other times it was varnishing the bar.

We definitely had a hard time navigating this ship considering it is one of the smaller ships. They layout was very confusing. Normally it would take us a day to figure out the ship but come the day of disembarkment, I still don't think I could easily find my way around. Read more
