My booking confirmation on Freedom says 5:45. Does that mean the doors open at 5:00 but you have until 5:45 to get there? I guess we will find out once onboard.
I give a lot of credit to anyone who can eat those pork bao tacos. My mouth was on fire from the first bite. And I agree that the mushroom risotto was bad.
We were on Jewel last March for 8 days. Beautiful ship and fantastic crew but I missed having an ice show and a promenade. Cabin was a little worn but very clean. If you get Nicholas in the MDR you will have a great time.
