We are on board now for our second week and purchased the premium access pass.
We found that the staff at the terminal were not familiar with this pass, plus we didn't have anything on the luggage to state we had this.
It was just lucky that one person seemed to know about it and we were taken through very quickly.
As to whether the luggage arrived quickly I'm not sure as there were plenty of other suitcases about when ours arrived.
With regards to the reserved seating at the theatre it is one section of the front row of the balcony and when we arrived we were told that we didn't have the premium access at which point I was quite annoyed and it would transpire that you have to have this on your room card.
To be fair the lady in the Theatre got the cards reprinted with it on.
People were waiting at the top of the aisle for the premium access area to open up 5 or 10 mins before the start of the show to grab the front row seats.
On the second week we had the same thing again it wasn't printed on the cards. So we had to go to Guest Services to get it done and once again some confusion about it.
I did mention for them to tell the bosses that it would be a good idea when they bring a new product out to advise the staff!
We haven't had any tender ports
The premium WiFi has been very good.
Hopefully as time goes on they will be more familiar with this access.
Whether it is worth it or not depends how much you pay I guess, and if the premium benefits are things that are important to you.
I hope this helps other cruisers.
