If you've been on a longer cruise before (7+ day), don't take this cruise. I feel because of the length of the cruise, the entertainment is less. Shows in the Orpheum theater were not very good, however the cruise director was very talented. Enjoyed him more than the main act! No Broadway type shows on this cruise.
Embarkation & debarkation were Excellent. Very fast and efficient. We were on board and in the Windjammer cafe just minutes after arrival.
We took the Kennedy Space Center Excursion upon debarkation. One of the best excursions. Came off the ship extremely fast, right onto a bus that takes you and your luggage directly to Kennedy Space Center. Special entrance into NASA, and bypass lines for bus tour. Transportation to airport and luggage all taken care of by excursion. Of course you have to handle your own bags through immigration and check in at airport.
This cabin is situated from front to back opposed to side to side, but the bed is still the same direction as a regular room. This room smelled terribly like mold. The cabin steward called maintenance right away and they came to fix the air conditioning. Unfortunately, the mold smell is permanent. The room is in dire need of an upgrade. Bathroom smelled of mold too.
Bed however was comfortable, and the room location was VERY CONVENIENT! Loved how close it was to Windjammer and Solarium/gym (midnight snack bar)- just up one floor. Main dining room was same end of ship so you just go down 3-4 flights of stairs.
Great excursion. Bypassed entrance lines and bus tour lines of the Space Center. Needed more time to look around on our own and play with many of the exhibits.
