stitch4me Posted November 21, 2015 #551 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Love the posts! Can't wait for my cruise on Indy in only 2 weeks! Feeling a little concerned about disembarking. I have a 10:25am flight so I will be one of the ones at the gangway at 6:30 to take a taxi to the airport. Hope it all goes smoothly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckrobyn Posted November 21, 2015 Author #552 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Thank you again! :) Did you make reservations before you sailed for Chops? If you could share a menu from tonight I would appreciate it. And the cost please The day we board will be my son's birthday. I was thinking it might be a nice first dinner of the vacation :) Sorry, forgot to answer your questions! We made reservations today as we were walking in to windjammer for lunch. I get a BOGO offer as part of the D+ benefits, I think the charge is $25? I may be wrong, but something close to it.

Oh dear [emoji15][emoji15] I'm not trying to freak you out, but if you can change that time to later, you definitely should. As for your cruise, you are in for a fantastic time on a great ship!

nednrom Posted November 21, 2015 #555 Share Posted November 21, 2015 As long as you don't have a ton of heavy luggage! Disembarkation is on deck 1, and you cannot take the elevator down if you are walking off apparently. My best friend disembarked this morning, she walked off so maybe she will pop in here and share her experience, right shar27? [emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk We didn't dock until 7:22 am. I'm not sure how long custom clearance took. I was surprised to see us still moving at 7:00 am.

Self assist was supposed to start at 7:30, but announcements started around 7:00 saying that it would be late. If you need disembarking assistance, this option is not available to you. Forward passengers were to meet in the theatre, deck four. Aft passengers met in studio B, deck 3. I went down to deck 3 and there was quite the line up. We started disembarking around 8. We all had to carry/bounce our suitcases down to deck 1. We all stood in line outside for a while, but once we started moving, the line moved quite fast. I was in a cab to the airport by 8:35.

stitch4me Posted November 21, 2015 #557 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Thanks for the information. I think I will keep the 10:25 am flight and hope for the best! The airport is not far from the terminal. Can't wait to experience the Independence. It will be our first time on her.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be our first time on her.:) Just make sure you do your airline check in on-line from the ship as you usually have to be checked in 60-90 minutes before your flight. Doing it ahead of time will give you a lot more time to get to the airport and to your flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnamac123 Posted November 22, 2015 #560 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Robyn, My sincere thanks for the several pics you took of 6321. I've got a solid idea of location now. Did you ever resolve the noise problem from Boleros? Also, do you know, offhand, if the Luggage Valet is available thru Ft. Lauderdale airport on Delta? I won't bother you again!!! Enjoy Part Deux !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted November 22, 2015 Author #566 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Dinner at Chops.....Amazing! Guy 3 tables over having a total meltdown because they don't serve ribeye steak.......Priceless! He even ranted that he's D+ and has 175 nights at sea.

VacayVik Posted November 22, 2015 #570 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Good morning from the Indy on turn around day! Not gonna lie, feeling pretty smug right now [emoji18] I slept in until after 8am, and right now I am enjoying a nice latte while sitting in the Champagne Bar watching the suitcases go by.....The consecutive cruisers will be meeting in the Pyramid Lounge at 10am to be escorted off, through customs and of course back onboard for another fabulous 5 nights! [emoji106] Last night's Quest was hilarious, lots of new "quests" and Studio B was standing room only. Today is a mix of sun and cloud in Fort Lauderdale, which is awesome considering we thought it was going to be really overcast and rainy. I'm pretty sure we will be on deck for sailaway this cruise! I hope you enjoyed the first 5 nights of my cruise, it's been a blast reporting LIVE. Let's get the part started for round 2!!!!! We will be visiting Cozumel and Belize [emoji4]. More updates later, thanks for cruising with me! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Hey Robyn! That must be the BEST feeling not having to pack up and go back to reality... instead you get to do it all over again! Totally loving this review. We head on Indy Jan. 16th and then Adventure of the Seas May 21st!I see you have been on that ship as well! This upcoming cruise you are heading on is the same itinerary as us, Cozumel and Belize. If it isn't too much to ask, any way you can post each cruise compass and MDR dinner menus? It would be greatly appreciated! Enjoy round 2 of your cruise, and have a chocolate martini for me!! :) :) Thanks, Vicki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
