EMBARKATION: We left from New York on November 13, 2010. Arrived at the terminal at 11am. Lots of people already there. As usual we were checked in efficiently and escorted to the suite passenger waiting area. We were comfortable and provided with lots of goodies to enjoy during our wait to board. Ruth Haggar our concierge, who is WONDERFUL, arrived at about noon and explained why we would be delayed a short time. The ship had just returned from Europe and apparently there is a lot going on before we could board. We were given the option to board at 1 pm if we chose not to be escorted. Of course we took the option and got on the ship. I was a bit disappointed that Cagneys was closed. Since we were in a suite again, we should have been able to have lunch there but this time we could not. So off to the Garden Cafe we went.

Left New York 2 hours late, but is was a beautiful site. New York skyline at night was gorgeous.

CABIN: We were in an AD Romance suite on deck 10. Since this was an Aft suite the view was gorgeous. I would not hesitate to book this room again, in fact I did, for next November. The room was clean, had an ample seating area, dining table and four chairs, dressing room and bathroom with a tub. Nice room. The balcony was large enough for two loungers and two chairs and a table. Great balcony!. Read more
