Arriving at Cape Liberty was as easy as it could get and embarkation was also fast and orderly.
We arrived about 1:30 pm. Room was ready and luggage arrived shortly. We found the butler and cabin steward to be friendly and always aware of your needs. Cabin was located at the back of the ship and had a more than ample balcony with a table and chairs and lounge. A little noise from the props ...
My husband and I cruised on the Journey's first 14-day sailing on October 27th. It was a great cruise and the Journey is a wonderful ship though they do have some work to do to become what I feel they are trying to market Azamara to be in comparison to the other cruise lines. The boat is still in need of renovations, repairs and updates; this would not be the expectation on the upscale, luxury ...
My husband and I are avid cruisers and have sailed more than 30 times on various cruise lines mostly on Royal Caribbean during the last 12 years. On Saturday, we had a smooth and on-time flight from Indianapolis and arrived early in Newark.
EMBARKATION We took the cruise line's ground transportation and arriving at the pier before check-in had begun, we were directed to a waiting area where we ...
My thoughts on the 9/29 sailing on Azamara Journey
Background: Mid 40's, I have cruise on Rccl, Ncl, Carnival and Princess
Embarkation: Drove to Cape Liberty - check-in and embarkation a breeze
Ship Info: Beautiful ship...very clean and well-maintained...not as tiny as i thought it would be, easy to navigate..never too far away from where you want to go-it offered as much as possible for a ...
My husband and I just returned from a 7-day September 22nd Bermuda cruise roundtrip Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey on the Azamara Journey. We are frequent cruisers, and found the Journey to be a beautiful, small vessel providing a very good experience with excellent food and solid service throughout the week.
The 700-passenger Azamara Journey is new to Celebrity as of this Spring, having ...
Azamara Journey Sept. 1-8, 2007
I want to preface this review by saying that this is my opinion (obviously) and coming from an Interior Designer who loves the look and style of the Celebrity fleet. Some of this may seem picky but they are things that are important to me and hopefully others will get something out of my observations.
We had booked this cruise in 2006, as soon as we heard about ...
BACKGROUND My husband and I are in our early thirties. We have been on 8 other cruises. We've sailed on RCCL, Carnival and Norwegian. RCCL has always been our favorite, but we loved Azamara just as much!
EMBARKATION We had a ride to the pier so it was very easy for us. As soon as we pulled up a porter was there to take our bags. Check in was a breeze it literally took five minutes. From there we ...
This was our third cruise. We booked this cruise for our Honeymoon through our local travel agent. We figured a cruise would be the most cost effective way to see Bermuda. The ride to Cape Liberty in Bayonne was a breeze as we live 30 minutes away. We arrived at the pier at 12:00 and were on the ship by 12:15. Embarkation was fast and easy... We were greeted by smiling faces and a nice glass of ...
Our cabin was an outside cabin that was located on the 7th level in the center of the ship. We were surprised how big the room was. It was a nice size. The bathroom was very small though. The shower was a challenge each time. We had a veranda that we loved. We saw a perfect sunset coming home. There was daily fruit basket, fresh cut flowers, 23" plasma television, complimentary use of binoculars, ...
Embarkation
We arrived at Cape Liberty by car at about 12:30. The port makes up in efficiency what it lacks in looks. We drove directly to the terminal and dropped off our 4 suitcases. The porter did not suggest any tip or warn about our luggage. I gave him $10 and parked the car. Parking is plentiful and costs $112 for a seven day cruise. It is a short walk back to the terminal but shuttles are ...
