Wanted to try a larger ship as travelled many times on RCL. Well despite the negativity I have read, it was not applicable. Fabulous ship, excellent memories made with lots of new and exciting friendships which I am certain will blossom beyond this sailing.
Embarkation – Quick speedy and efficient. Porters were waiting on the right side for bag drop off, on entry quick health form completed, allocated an RCL member to process and onboard we went. Smooth painless and done within 20 mins from start to finish.
Onboard – Guest Services – As I was travelling with a minor their seapass card has to have a spend limit put on. Quick and easy, once in the line an RCL member helped fill out the relevant paperwork and we were free to start our holiday.
Excellent position, Deck 12 near poolside bar, above Solarium and gym, one floor to windjammer and lift access was super.
Sydney is an amazing port, lots to see and do. Closely you have the botanical gardens well worth a little train ride if you have little ones.
Its an industrial port. Hopefully the Gold Coast will build their terminal and that would be an amazing destination for all us cruisers to come to.
