I traveled with my husband and Port Canaveral was a good choice of departure. The boarding was fairly fast, considering the size of the ship (Oasis of the Seas), which holds over 6 thousand passengers. Our room was nice and our stateroom guy was super pleasant and quick to provide any extras that we requested such as extra pillows.
The days at seas were pleasant. None of the areas were overly crowded if you wake up at a reasonable time. Since we both were fairly early rises, we didn't get huge breakfast lines either. That were plenty of options for breakfast outside of the main breakfast area, including "The Park" on deck 8, Central Park area. That's plenty of food choices o please all palates, Greeks and Troy-ans... (lol.. a Brazilian expression)...
I'm glad we both purchased the beverage package in advance because it costs $12.00 dollars more to purchase it on the ship. It saves the hassle of worrying about how much money you're going to spend.. Tips are included but in the package, but I still managed to spend about $60.00 on bar tips... The bar selection is awesome... They pretty much have everything .....
