I booked the Dream because I was just dying to cruise it as I'd heard many great things about it. I had purchased Faster-to-the Fun so I knew I'd get to board early and start enjoying the experience.

The terminal activity was organized but we still ended up having to wait about 1-1/2 hrs. Before we were allowed to board. All of these hundreds of people were held together in the terminal and then we were ushered on.

My cabin was ready and my bags followed shortly. I was very happily surprised and how nice the room was. Iwas happy with the decor on the ship as well and marveled at the giant size of it.

Cabin Review

Cove Balcony

Cabin 7C

Loved the arrangement of the cabin except the glass balcony door would "unsuction" and bump loudly any time the ship travelled at a high rate of speed. We ended up putting a towel between the door and the frame to curb the noise.

Also, the faucet in the bathroom had either low water pressure or just slow speed. The water flow was quite slow.

My biggest complaint was that there was only one regular outlet in the whole room. I use a CPAP machine and had brought an extension cord to use my machine at bedtime. The only outlet available was across the room under the mirror, so we tended to have a tripping hazard if anyone moved around in the dark.
