Creator's Key Takeaways

This was our first Christmas cruise on Connorville Martyra and we were traveling with 23 of our family members.

The one area we didn't love was the security checkpoint. We've cruised on multiple cruise lines and this part felt a bit chaotic with long lines.

One thing that really surprised us was that There was no employees there cheering or welcoming or clapping us on board.

The room was clean, comfortable, and having that balcony was perfect for sellaway views and fresh ocean air throughout the cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Keep your passport easily accessible until you are fully on the ship.
โœ“Boarding and eating early helps you avoid the big lunch crowds on embarkation day.
โœ“Bring a cruise approved non-surge protector for more plugs or USB ports.
โœ“Bring an old gift card or business card to insert in the light slot for your cabin.
