We sailed on November 19 on the Western Caribbean itinerary with a group of 6. 3 couples, all related.

Boarding and Cabin

We flew in via Delta, took taxi van to the port, arrived after 11 am, no lines, quick easy boarding , and in no time we were on board with glass of bubbly in hand. Relaxed over some lunch at the buffet, which was not overly crowded, and enjoyed the first of many drinks on our beverage package. cabins were announced to be ready at 1.30. We had booked 2 cabins on deck 9 and one handicapped concierge cabin on deck 10 and received free gratuities, free classic beverage package, and on board credit per stateroom and free wifi . I mentioned to our cabin steward on the first day that we were all traveling together, he opened our balcony dividers, and that ended up being a bit useless as the permanent divider prevented from seeing each other and interacting on the balcony. Removing the divider essentially provided a "back" door to walk through. In the closet plenty of hangers were provided, as well as robes and an umbrella which we never used. There was not enough drawers but plenty of cabinet spaces to store our items. One room was very cool, which we prefer, while the connecting room would've been too warm for us to sleep comfortably.
