Additional details
We were in cabin 8168 a corner aft. We are in our mid fifty's. This was our 15th cruise 10th on RCCL.
Embarking: We drove to Boston from New York. Arrived about 12:00 PM, dropped the luggage with the porters and went to park. Indoor garage about 2 blocks away. They say to park on 4th level. The cost is $15 per day, payable by credit card when you leave. Went to the ship picked up our sea pass cards and on we went. We were eating by 12:30. Rooms were not ready till 1:00PM as usual.
The ship: It is in excellent shape, and we love the Radiance class ships. It is very easy to get around. Love the glass elevators looking at the water.
Cabin Review
Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony
The cabin was a standard D1 aft. Bed by the doors to the balcony. The balcony is very wide with a partial wrap around. But the wall is on an angle towards the corner and you have to contort yourself over a support pole and around the wall which goes right up to the pole. But you can do it. The balcony is also a little narrow for aft cabin, just enough room for the lounge chair to fit.
But we love the AFT cabins.
