Flights - not really applicable since I work for an airline and I non-reved to FLL.

Embarkation - a bit sticky - but it was my fault. I left the confirmation sheet at home. Knowing what room we were in helped this rectify this situation very quickly though. Thought it was tacky that one of the baggage stewards (takes your checked bags at the curb) 'told' us to tip him... Gentleman who checked us in at the desk was a jewel!! Such a great personality that I would say our vacation started with him! Lines moved quickly.. every one was helpful and so very friendly!

Room - 9133 balcony room. Just beautiful!!! Port side which I was told was the best side for our itin. I agree, especially since I enjoy photography and we passed right by the old fort when coming into San Juan. The room seemed larger than what I expected even though I had seen pictures. Our bed was by the balcony and I loved this. we went to sleep with the curtains wide open so that when the sun rose, we could lay in bed and watch it. The bathroom was also very roomy (I want one of those showers in my house!)..no need for the over the door shoe holder thing some people talk about using. We did not even use all the storage space - and trust me when I say that I OVER PACKED! Did use the extension cord though. Loved the flat screen TV and the fact that they used a computer facial recognition system to send any pictures to our room that were taken of us! The light switch under the bed reading light not only controlled that light - but the ceiling room lights .. nice to not have to get out of bed to turn it all off (especially with the curtains open - ha ha) Also - loved the dimmer switch!
