Rare cruisestitch Posted July 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 16, 2022 This post was recognized by LauraS! "Thanks for generously sharing your time at sea with everyone at Cruise Critic!" cruisestitch was awarded the badge '"Live from...."' I don’t think I have ever been first on board before but I was this morning, and was actually at my room by 11 AM. I will pass over night night in an indifferent Sheraton four points hotel in Fort Lauderdale and start with the cruise report. I was met by three familiar crew members, great to see them. One is Jaz, an experienced Activities Host, known from past cruises. please ask any questions and I will attempt to find answers as the week goes on. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barwick Cruiser Posted July 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Following! Sounds like things on Infinity have improved greatly from the first sailing so you should be in for a great time! Enjoy and thanks for posting “live”! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordylad Posted July 16, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Following...we will be on her in a few months. What category of cabin are you in and are you happy with the furnishing inside and outside [if you are in a balcony cabin] ? More questions to come......Enjoy your cruise!!

Rare eroller Posted July 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Looking forward to following along. INFINITY is on my short list for an upcoming cruise. I sailed on her almost 20 years ago on a cruise to Hawaii and it was a great trip. Generally I love the M-Class ships and have sailed on all four. I’m mainly interested in how she is holding up, and that the a/c issues have been resolved which I think they have. Enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirnsd Posted July 16, 2022 #9 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Following along. We are booked for April 2023 and were slightly concerned to hear about some of the teething issues following her restart. Looks like a lot of them have been worked out, but will look forward to hear your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kywildcatfanone Posted July 16, 2022 #11 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I just want to know about the A/C particularly in cabins. How is yours and any of your traveling companions? Any comments from other passengers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give the room an A. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted July 16, 2022 #14 Share Posted July 16, 2022 How is the service in the dining room? Are they still short staffed. How many passengers on your sailing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted July 16, 2022 Author #15 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I will let you know about the dining room. Lunch today was at buffet……plenty of seating….self-serve as I expected it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonbird Posted July 16, 2022 #17 Share Posted July 16, 2022 We board August 6th and appreciate you taking time to share your vacation. We will be following along. Of interest will be the quality of food in the main dining room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted July 16, 2022 Author #18 Share Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) The only complaint I have right now is that the Wi-Fi system is very clunky in terms of how you connect to it. Here are the instructions and notice number six telling you to repeat two or three times, it took me four times to get a connection Edited July 16, 2022 by cruisestitch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am glad the ship is in better shape. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare NutsAboutGolf Posted July 16, 2022 #21 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I’m on this sailing, we just boarded so we haven’t experienced much of the dining service yet. I wanted to report I’m in an aft deck 11 AQ and AC has been working great. The ship and the stateroom are better condition than I thought. Some finishes may be outdated but generally things are clean with minimal signs of wear. I’ll happily share thoughts if my opinion changes throughout the sailing. About to sail away! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
