  1. We did exactly this a few weeks ago. Yes doable but no idea about restroom 'coz we didn't use one. Details: We had the 11:30am slot for the wellness checkpoint for Odyssey of the Seas. At around 11:15am we entered Port Everglades via 17th street, had to show ID for all 4 of us at the security booth, then drove to Terminal 18 and there were people directing us to where to drop off. We dropped off two adult daughters and all 5 pieces of luggage. The porters took our big suitcases and the girls held onto the carry ons and they sat on a bench outside the terminal building (there were benches) but they could have gone inside the terminal building, there might have been more seating inside but we didn't look . We dropped off rental car at FLL and crossed from rental car building into Terminal 1 and hailed a cab from there. By then it was noon and there was a huge jam going into Port Everglades - the taxi meter came to 18.55 by the time we were dropped off at Terminal 18 but the cab guy wanted $21 (hubby and i had no luggage!) and wanted it in cash. We will likely go this route again if we ever cruise RCI from Port Everglades. Hope this helps.
  2. Just got off the Odyssey on friday (Christmas sailing). We LOVED the WJ (and many other things on the Ody) but thought it was just good design on RCI's part across its fleet!? We're thinking of Wonder of the Seas next (to experience the BIG OASIS class, again, only other sailing was Allure 11 years ago and memories are fading 😁). Edit: Just to add more, we thought the food on the cruise was great and we liked the fact that there was plenty of seating in the WJ, there were tables on each side all the way to the back and wrapped around and there's a food counter/outlet at the stern. Our Christmas cruise was supposed to have the highest passenger count 4800 ("beating the previous record holder by 5 passengers" was what we heard at Captain's Corner), yet we never had an issue looking for a place to sit, including debarkation morning at 8am haha. There were many choices, plus specialties stations such as Gluten Free, Vegetarian and Vegan (we are none of those but have friends who are). Just wish the WJ was open later than 9pm but there are other options : Cafe Promenade has pastries and sandwiches, Sorrento's has pizza, and Playmakers ($) has many pub food options, to name a few.
