We were already in Florida for the Christmas holidays, so we drove to the Port on Saturday morning. We parked our vehicle at the Park 'N Cruise lot for $6.99 per day. This worked well for us and would do it again. We pulled in dropped our bags, loaded on the shuttle and to the pier all within half an hour tops. Pick up upon return was fast too..we were off the ship, and back at our vehicle by 7:45 am.

We are Platinum cruisers, so it was nice to be within the first group on the ship. We were aboard shortly after 11 am. This ship is huge. I know some complain about the decor, but I thought it was nice..alot of red and gold, but nice all the same. Being that it was Christmas Break, the ship was full and there were lots of families.

We had a cabin on the Main deck, inside, which was fine. We don't spend much time in our room. Read more
