Embarkation:
We left for our trip on Easter Sunday and had a limo service take us up to NYC. We got there no problem and checked in with no problem too. We had to wait in the terminal for a little while, because the ship wasn't ready yet, but we did get on a little after 12.
Dining:
We got a large balcony room because we read the balconies were small and I definitely saw that. We did like our balcony though. It had 2 chairs, a table, and a lounge chair. It was very spacious. Our room was great and our housekeeper was great. Everything about the room was excellent!
