Chose this cruise ( and itinerary) because we wanted to sail on the Freedom one more time before it was sent south. We have sailed on her many times, and she is still our favorite ship because of the size and features.... We were very pleased with the whole experience, except for the weather's interfering and changing our course. We are a senior couple, but we played golf, saw the ice show, and most of the nightly entertainment, some of which we had seen before, but was still enjoyable. Our cabin steward was top-notch and anticipated our needs....and took care of our special requests. Waiter and Asst. waiter were also very professional, but efficient and friendly....again. anticipating our needs. The casino staff was friendly and helpful, and patiently answered a lot of questions for us.

We did not go ashore at all.....had been to these ports before and it was just too hot for us to walk that far to town. We found plenty to do onboard....Johhny Rocket's is always fun.

I would recommend this ship to everyone, as the families with children seemed to enjoy their special programs and all the dining opportunities. Our cabin was clean and functional. Read more
