EMBARKATION:
Embarkation was a breeze, we got to the port around 10 am, walked right up, got our S&S card and waited about 45 minutes for the USCG to clear us to board. We actually boarded earlier than what I'm used to, however the process of letting Platinum and VIP guests needs a ton of work. As soon as they announced these guests and only these guests could board, half the terminal jumped up and we had everything from platinum guests to first time guests cut in line instead of waiting their turn. What was worse is that no one was checking the cards and they were just letting anyone board all at once. We arrived so early and kind of got the short end of the stick but I guess it could have been worse.

Cabin Review
Interior
Cabin 1203, which is as close as you can get to crew quarters without entering through their door. The cabin itself was fine, nothing amazing, a bed, TV, and refrigerator with a bathroom. The location was not the greatest, the weather was windy most days and high seas so unless you enjoy the sound of waves banging across the hull all night choose a different location. It was like someone taking 20 bats and slamming the boat every couple of seconds most nights. In fair weather it wouldn't be an issue but be prepared to sleep less if it storms. The location is also kind of annoying because crew are constantly going in and out of their door. I can't fault them for working but hearing your cabin steward get up at 6am was kind of annoying.
