Sail Date: Aug 2010
Traveled with children

We were a group of six in three inside cabins. Third cruise for me and hubby, second for my teenage son, first for my son's friend, my sister-in-law and her 11-year old son.

Embarkation was fine...except that somehow we ended up in a line that was used for all passengers who needed assistance. They tried to squeeze these poor folks passed us and one lady got hit in the ankles with someone's wheelchair. We were in the parking lot by 11:30 and on the ship eating lunch by 12:30.

We had been on the Mariner three years ago and loved it. This ship was like dEjà vu all over again. Same layout, same look (except for the weird artwork in the stairwells)...I guess we thought it would be significantly different, as it is a different class of ship. That said, it is beautiful. We had over 4300 passengers, so it was full. It only felt full at the muster drill (hot!) and on sea days near the pool.
