Let me start by saying we are a married couple, both 41. This is our 7th cruise with Royal Caribbean....and RCI just keeps getting better!
We made our way to Cape Liberty by car...we live only one hour and fifteen minutes away...and it was easy to get to and the drop-off process for the luggage was easy and makes sense. Then we parked our car and walked back (short-ish walk) to the terminal to check-in. We were met with all smiling faces and helpful people, from the lot attendants to the terminal porters. RCI has this down to a science, everyone was glad to be there and help out with any questions; where to go, etc...
Open waiting 10 seconds, yes seconds, in line, we were greeted very cheerfully by a gentleman that ended up escorting us to a different area because we had a junior suite. We literally were checked-in and had sea passes in hand, in under 5 minutes! We could not believe it, LOL We were loving it! We took the bus to the ship and it was quick! Only waited less than 3 mins to get on the bus and only on the bus 5 mins...quick process...nothing to even worry about there.
HUGE walk-in closet, clean furnishings, comfy bed, very clean and we loved all the closet and vanity space. It was a hump JS, great location!
