Took a same day flight from EWR (Newark NJ) to FLL. 815 am flight arrived in FLL by 1145 am and picked up the luggage and walked to take a taxi to the port. Traveled with 7 people total in our party. Cab fare was 14.00 and took no more than 8 minutes. You can see the ship from the airport! Check in was quick as they divided you up by decks. We were on the ship within 12 minutes.
Ate lunch at the Park cafe and experienced how good those freshly carved roast beef sandwiches were. The cafe is cute and has made to order salads and assorted sandwiches and paninis. The tables fill up quickly so you may need to eat at a table outside.
Brought our bathing suits with us in our carry on, so we went straight to the solarium to grab a cabana and enjoy the pool while it is quiet.
9414 ---- was all the way forward. It was quiet. Typical inside room. Thought the bathroom was pretty roomy. The Bed was extremely comfortable!!
