Kiki in Michigan

ON MAIN ROYAL THREAD ALSO:

i forgot what time freedom disembarked. it docks at 7am. how early of a flight do you think is okay? for me the earlier the better but i wanted to get opinions on the disembarkation of freedom since we stayed on as late as possible last time due to a late flight.

i was hoping to do a flight as early as 10am. what do you think?

has anyone heard of any long delays getting off of freedom?

Thank you!!!!

We chose to carry our own luggage off and got in line on the ship at 6:00. They started letting us off the ship at 6:30 or so and we got through customs fairly quickly. We were in a taxi by 7:00 and to the Fort Lauderdale airport at 7:30.

This is the way to go if you don't have too much luggage!

We had a fabulous time on the Freedom! We got to the port at 11:00 and were on the lido deck at noon. We couldn't get to our room to put our carryons in but we changed into our swimsuits and found our chairs right by the pool. I also took lots of pictures before it got too crazy with people.

As far as ice cream, you can get softserve from a few spots right on the lido deck. I believe Ben and Jerry's had 10-12 flavors to choose from. A medium cup was $3 something I think.

I'll gladly answer any questions you have! Wish I were still on the cruise instead of unpacking and doing laundry!! :(
