Love reading this board. I think I have my husband convinced to do the 4 day cruise next year. As we have never cruised, I have lots of questions any help is appreciated!!!
Time of year
We would really like to go in May, but a family obligation may not allow it, so if not May, how is it to cruise at the end of Augus/ beginning of Sept?? I am worried about it being hurrican season and that we may not be able to get to castaway cay. Anyone who has gone these times I would love your thoughts!
Arrival
If we do go when we prefer in May, we would have to arrive in Orlando the morning the cruise sails. We would try to get a 7am, flight that should get us to Orlando for 9:30, but it seems cutting it awfully close for me and I am worried about it. Ideally I would love to get in the night before. Has anyone ever had a problem arriving same day???
Cabin
We were looking at a category 8 cabin with the porthole, but after reading all the great posts about sitting out on your verandahs' I am wondering is the $300 extra, worth the verandah or is the porthole room just as good. What do you think???
Nassau
We would love to visit Atlantis. My girls have watched the mary kate and ashley movie that takes place there over and over and would love to explore the resort. Is the best way to do this to rent a room at the comfort inn? What price do they usually go for? Would we have to take a taxi, and are they safe???
I know I will have lots more questions to come. Thanks for all of your help in advance. We usually do not spend this much on a 4 day vacation so I really want this to be the best vacation my daughters have ever had !
