This was my 2nd cruise on Freedom of the Seas on this Western Caribbean itinerary and it was excellent from start to finish. A couple of niggles but nothing to spoil our enjoyment.
My brother and I were in Las Vegas at a conference the week before so flew down to Orlando via South West Airlines. (Not great, the free for all seating was a pain!)
We had arrange with Go Canaveral to be collected from the airport, driven to our hotel (also booked through them) and then picked up again to be drive to the ship the next morning and then collected after the cruise to go back to the airport. This worked very well and I would give them 5 stars for the organisation and ease.
Normal balcony cabin in great location near elevators and midships.
Stayed at Hilton Hotel - bit tired but bar and entertainment outside was a great start to our holiday.
Good beaches.
