Pre Cruise- We live in Orange Park Florida and decided to drive down to Ft Lauderdale the day before our cruise. We stayed at the Comfort Inn Airport. Not a real flashy hotel, but it served our purpose and what we liked about it we were able to leave our car and the hotel shuttled us to and from the pier. Rooms were reasonable and clean.

Embarkation: We arrived at the port at 10:45 AM. Easiest embarkation I have ever experienced. Since my husband was using a scooter due to an injured foot we went through the line then we were told to go where the Platinum members were waiting to board. Once they were called we followed behind. We were on the ship and enjoying ourselves by 11:10.

We had an interior handicap cabin. Room 6149, was huge. I have never been in an interior cabin quite as large. We had plenty of plugs in our room, not sure if that was because it was a handicap room. Storage and closet space was more than adequate. Since my husband and I were both celebrating our birthdays our family had our room decorated and a flower cake delivered. The cake was beautiful and just as fresh on the final day as it was on the first. Hated to leave it there when we departed. Our first stop once on board was the Park Cafe. We just had to experience the roast beef sandwiches. They didn't let us down. They were wonderful. Toured the ship to get familiar. Easiest ship to navigate around even though it is large. The interactive boards near the elevators were fantastic. You could never get lost. The easiest thing for me to remember was that our room was in the front of the ship as well as all the entertainment and the food was in the back of the ship. We were in our rooms by 1:00 no problem. Our luggage was delivered shortly after wer go in our room. Was totally unpacked and everything put away before the life boat drill. The life boat drill was a snap. We went to the Vitality Spa for ours. Showed a short film on putting on your life jackets and it was over. It was great not to have to stand on deck in a life jacket.

Cabin Review

Large Interior Stateroom

Cabin N

Cabin 6149 was a handicap room. Very large, bathroom large not a lot of cabinet space, but it was adequate for us. We were next to the Vitality Spa and it was very quiet. Closet space was good I had plenty of room to put our thing. Suitcases fit nicely under the bed. Interactive TV was awesome. Plenty of plugs for us. Regular rooms I would suggest you bring a power strip with you.
