The cruise was spectacular. Everything was wonderful. No negatives. This was my first time on the Glory. I'm going again next year, same ship, same itinerary, same dates 9/5/11 - 9/10/11 and so exciting to be going back. Such nice people taking this cruise. Some kids, but a wide demographic and people were pleasant, friendly, so nice to meet.
Day One - Monday 9/6/10 - Labor Day
I arrived at the NYC Pier at approximately 10:30am. The weather was beautiful, warm and sunny. In order to enter the terminal, I had to show my boarding pass and passport right away. I was then directed to have a seat in the waiting room. There were coolers with drinking water/lemonade, and small paper cups. This is SO MUCH improved from a few years ago when there were no seats. I was in boarding group 5 and on the ship by 11:45am.
Great room. I selected it for my next cruise. One bed, two port holes, three closets. Very spacious. I am told sofa can be converted to a bed. Only consideration is that it is very far forward so if mobility is an issue, it is a long walk to many places on the ship.
