We flew into Ft. Lauderdale on SW Air, and took a shuttle to Miami to board the ship. Embarkation went very smoothly, no bad lines. Shuttle to Miami was about 30-35 minutes.

Once onboard we toured the ship. The first night we did not do the dining, and opted for quick food. There are two Burger/Fries/Tenders/Hot Dog locations. We ate that afternoon once we got on.
