My wife and I just got back from the 3-day Bahamas cruise on Majesty. I will try to cover everything as best I can.

We left the morning after a major blizzard in the Northeast. The airports were a NIGHTMARE. We missed our connecting flight and luckily found the last two seats on a plane to Ft. Lauderdale and caught a cab to Miami. We made it to the port with 20 minutes to spare. When I called Royal Carribean from the airport in Atlanta re: holding the ship, they said that they only do that if a large % of the passengers are missing. This was not the case so we really just made it. My advice to anyone taking any cruise would be to take an additional day for travel and get to the port the night before. I would do this going forward.

The cruise itself was pretty good. Night 1 we had rough seas and after a long day of travel, we ate a quick bite in the Windjammer, lasted through 5 minutes of the show, and just went right to bed. The water from Miami to CoCo Cay was really rough and the ship was rocking the whole night. I didn't mind it so much because I found it helped me sleep but my wife's stomach felt differently. This isn't the ship's fault so I don't blame anyone, just something to be aware of. Read more
