First a little bit about us. My husband and I have been on 6 cruises.2 NCL, 3 Carnival and 1 RCCL... We started with smaller ships, and have continued to choose bigger and bigger ships until we maxed out on the biggest cruise ship in the world. We did not know what to expect on this massive ship - but for the most part were pleasantly surprised.
- Embarkation - Simply a breeze. Got to the port about 10:30 - No lines at all to check in. Took about 10 mintues before we were sitting in the waiting room to board. We were on the ship around noon and immediately headed to Central Park for the famous Roast Beef sandwiches... THEY WERE AMAZING - this was our first of many for the week
- Our cabin was ready by 1:30 and was spacious and had TONS of storage options. Kudos to RCCL for the 3 electrical outlets on the desk and also the IPOD/IPHONE dual charger/Clock.
This balcony cabin was a great central location. Easy to navigate around. Close to elevators and relatively quiet. No ocean breezes and central park can get really hot and muggy.
