As always, embarkment was a breeze, as soon as we boarded (15 min) we were brought right into the Crimson dining room to be served a wonderful lunch, we had 9 children, ages 10 & below who all sat together..all the moms were so impressed w/ how the wait staff took care of the kids, they even cut their food for them.
