Liberty of the Seas - One of the largest ship in the RCCL fleet. On this particular cruise, the ship was at full capacity with 4,370 passengers. This made some of the public areas (pool deck, promenade, elevators, Guest Relations area) crowded as compared to some of the other ships in the fleet. The ship was clean and was well maintained throughout the week. As usual, people were cleaning all the time.

Cruise staff: - It seems that this group had not been working with each other for awhile. During the cruise, one member of the staff joined the ship at the first port of call, another left at the second port of call. This disrupts the continuity of the staff. The programming was not run with the usual RCCL efficiency. Some activities were planned, a few people showed up but no cruise staff were there to facilitate the event.

This was a family cruise for 10 people. One couple was celebrating a 30 year anniversary, another couple celebrated a 10 year anniversary, and one couple celebrated a 1 year anniversary. The group came from different cities, Memphis, TN, Fredericksburg, Va, Atlanta, Ga, and West Palm Beach, Fl.

Cabin Review

Junior Suite

Cabin JS

Cabin 9338 - Junior Suite with Balcony. Room was clean and was well maintained throughout the cruise. Three things - one is a wish, the others could be an issue.

Issue (?) - the in-room refrigerator did not seem to cool the items down. Did not use this, but if someone needed it for storing medicine, this could be an issue.

One day, the dead bolt on the door would not function. We could not lock the door that night. The problem was reported the next morning to someone walking by (not the cabin steward) and they got it fixed immediately.

WISH: please put an electric outlet beside the beds. Those of us with CPAP machines need to plug in somewhere. As it stands, carry a 12' extension cord and a power strip so you can plug up the machines.
