My wife and I are in our early sixties and "young at heart" we sailed on the Eclipse from Fort Lauderdale on 9th March 2013 for a 2week southern caribbean cruise.
Our outbound flight from Manchester to Heathrow was delayed by one hour due to fog in London, we therefore missed our connecting flight (209 British Airways)to Miami, after flights being rearranged we were flown to Washington DC for an overnight stay in the Westin hotel, we then had a flight from Miami to Fort Lauderdale on the Saturday morning departing at 08.15, we eventually got to the ship and embarkation was smooth.
The ship itself is Ok apart from the outdoor pool(s) area which reminded us of a Butlins holiday camp,the food was Ok but nothing to shout about, as for the entertainment this in our opinion was poor, it appeared that the age of the majority of guests were late sixties to seventy+ and this reflected on the entertainment offered.
Cabin 9246 mid-ship:
Overhead storgae not practical to use nedd to stand on bed for access.
Lack of bedside drawers (only bedside shelf unit provided).
No external light on balcony.
Bathroom adequate.
Location OK.
