We have a southern Caribbean cruise next month and are not changing our plans. IMO, most of the scare comes from media hype and those of us in the USA are fine with our usual hygeine routine.

We have used ATD in the past. It usually works best for our vacation mode. We have never had a wait other than standing in line for a few minutes. The waiting seems longest in the middle of the period - 6:30 to 7:30.

If eating on the Lido deck, we would have to stand in line there too.

On our last cruise, we flew into FLL and cruised out of Miami. We used SAS for our shuttle. Everything went perfectly. I highly recommend them. I doubt they will have car seats for the young-uns but you should call them to confirm this. You never know until you ask. Have a great cruise.

$726. I budget $1000 for DW and I on a 7 or 8 day cruise so we were under budget. My philosophy - we are on vacation so let's have some fun. And we do! :D

I had one on the Liberty last year. Loved it. Can't beat the location.

We stayed in 9206 last year. Our experience was nothing short of awesome!

I was US NAVY for 21 years, many of them at sea. It took the wife 10 years to get me to try a "fun" cruise. Wish I would have gone sooner. Difference is night and day.

I think you should tell him - try it, you'll like it.:D

We stayed in 9205 and 9206 in March 2013. Wife and I in one and our son and his wife in the other. Each was a JS. IMY, the balcony was larger than a normal balcony, but only 50% or so. Not as large as other suites but plenty of room for us. We thought they were the best cabins we have ever had. Lots of room and the location was GREAT!. I think you'll enjoy.

We had cabin 9206 on the Liberty a few weeks ago. Our first Lido deck room and we loved it. Convenient to all the Lido deck amenities, gym, spa, serenity. Noise was not an issue.
