We recently took a short cruise just as a quick spring getaway. We chose the Liberty of the Sea because we like the Freedom class ships and we did not want to be gone very long. We thought it was a good combination.
We always fly in the night before so as to not have a stressful embarkation. When we arrived at the pier, there was a crowd but we went straight to the Diamond line and were helped quickly. The person checking us in was in a foul mood and that kind of set the tone for the weekend. We took our luggage with us so we didn't have to wait on it. Rooms are not ready until 1:00pm no matter what so plan accordingly.
Lunch in Windjammer was awful.
