Creator's Key Takeaways

It is probably the quickest embarcation we have ever known. From getting out of the taxi to getting to our muster station, it was slightly less than 15 minutes.

We were very disappointed when we came into our cabin because it clearly hadn't been cleaned properly with hair still all in the bathroom from the previous occupants.

We were pretty impressed with how apologetic they were and how they kept on top of it.

We have had a fantastic day today. We really appreciated how relaxed it all seemed from that quick embarcation to the brilliant entertainment we've seen.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Check in early on the app to secure an early embarkation time.
βœ“Print off luggage labels in advance as boarding passes are digital.
βœ“Head straight to your muster station upon boarding to get it ticked off.
