We are only 30 minutes south of the pier, so we drove and left our car in the lot. We are Diamonds and were directed to the priority boarding line, but boy, it was SLOW. The other lines moving much faster.

Our cabin attendant was certainly not the best we have ever had. She was constantly late giving us notices - in fact, we missed the CC M&M because the notice arrived the day after the event. Since we were familiar with procedures, we had to keep asking her if there were any notices for us - we had to have our shore ex tickets printed at guest relations because they never arrived in the cabin. Also missed a notice about balcony painting (while in port) because it arrived the next day, which caused us to have to vacate cabin on sea day and then smell paint the whole night. We did put a comment into guest relations, the paper said someone would get back to us within 24 hours, but no one contacted us about it. We did make several complaints about late notices to guest relations, the only one who attempted to do something about it was Brittany - everyone else just blew us off. We had to keep going down to get our internet credits and discount for our package. Good thing we kept checking or else we would have missed it. I prefer to hand the tip envelope to the person - I had attendant's envelope put aside - behind a cereal box with the writing to the mirror - well, she found it and took it. It was not in plain view - I had it put aside to hand to her. I guess she wanted to be sure she got it (should have told her it wasn't in our box - hahaha)

I am a picky eater - not a difficult eater, just picky. Our waiter Denise for our early seating table 505 was one of the best we have ever had on a cruise. Her assistant Abinash was new, and he did a great job. From the very first day, Denise had my dinners PERFECT - this earned her a WOW card from me, that's for sure!! We had great table mates - which made our dining experience just great!! Read more
