You don't really have to even give your name and when calling the suite (cabin) number shows up on their phone.
Besides breakfast we like to order dessert from the MDR menu just before their dinner hours close.
A nice night snack as we watch TV.
We've also used Cruise Control with our extended family of 6. Great service roundtrip MCO to our Port Canaveral hotel and end of cruise day back to MCO. Great communication from Corey and our driver Jake.
Don't book based on what you might see when docking for the Western Caribbean itinerary.
Book your cabin based on the location to what you may want close by once onboard.
Our most recent cruise with that itinerary (similar) was last September and had no rough seas.
Try Bonine...the chewable raspberry flavor works great if necessary.
Yes....there's a large indoor shopping area near where the tender drops off at the marina.
As far as restaurants...easy to check out the several there...menu's are posted out front or ask to see one. Just opt for what looks good to you.
Kona & Hilo would be a nice alternative. Another draw back to this cruise (for me) would be just Napali Coast (cruise by) at this point this isn't even a Hawaii cruise any longer.
If all else FAILS ( I would push back to resolutions as hard as I could) I would take the $100 pp change fee and change it.
