Additional details
We arrived at Miami from the UK. This was not a good start as we had to wait over 2.5 hours to get through immigration and then chaos of finding our cases. Very bad intro to the USA! Quick transfer to the Intercontinental Doral hotel for an overnight stay. Good hotel which allowed us to relax after the airport experience. At 12:30 the next day we were transferred to Fort Lauderdale for a very fast embarkation.
The Coral had a refurb a few wks before and is in superb condition! We were pleased with our cabin, equal to QM2. We had allocated main dining which was superb in all respects and did not need to find an alternative.
Ports of call are superb but the highlight is of course the Panama Canal. We entered via the Guatan locks and then moored up, the ship then went back out late afternoon to Colon. We chose the ships excursion to Panama City and Miraflora locks meeting up with the ship at Colon.
Cabin Review
P538. Outside double/twin Located on "P" deck 5. Good location for ease of access When back on board after days a shore and for the atrium. Enough storage space and a good size bathroom. Being low and central good for those you don't like a lot of movement.
