Embarkation

We arrived early and were ushered to a private lounge for Aqua Class and Suite passengers to await the ship being cleared. While waiting, we could check with dining room staff that were present on existing specialty restaurant reservations (we could never seem to get the online booking to work properly) and make additional reservations. We were pleased to find significant availability even though the online booking system stated that no reservations were available. It looked like they were setting-up to provide water, punch and cookies for those waiting in the lounge but we never actually saw any. Perhaps they came later. In any case, we were onboard the ship within about 20 minutes of it being cleared.
