App:
It is essential to download this App well in advance of your trip. On the app you will be able to explore the various amenities of the boat but most importantly, you will be able to book all your dinners ahead of time. I strongly recommend booking your dinners ahead of time or you will be stuck with dinner times that are very early or very late in the evening.
Check in:
Staterooms:
There are several types of rooms, Staterooms with a balcony, Staterooms with a window, Staterooms with no window (in the middle part of the ship) or Suites. If it is your first cruise you will be surprised at how small the rooms are. Albeit small, my wife and I were very surprised at how much storage room there was. We were both able to unpack our large suitcases completely. Be sure to use all the drawers and cubby spaces. Once unpacked, there is room to put your suitcase under the bed to get them out of the way. If your suitcases are too large to fit under the bed, lift the bed and the end slightly and the suitcase will slide under nicely. If needed, there is a trundle under the couch that can be used as an additional sleeping area.
Housekeeping (staterooms):
The attendant that was responsible for our room (Keith) was very good. He did a great job ensuring that our Stateroom was clean and stocked. Be sure to flip your door sign to indicate that you would like your room attended to. Please keep in mind that you will be encouraged to tip your room attendant at the end of the trip. My wife and I elected the tip package, but we did tip Keith additionally at the end of the trip. We had two rooms (one room for our adult kids) and we tipped Keith $75 per room.
