4 WHAT S IT LIKE TO CELEBRATE ON THE WATER? 1 1ONE GATHER YOUR CREW Make sure everyone in your group receives their ticket before boarding. From there, we ll be glad to seat you all together in your reserved space. BOARDING 2TWO Before boarding time, you can pick up your tickets at the booth near the boat. As you board, your group will have a chance to take a professional photo together. The prints will be available for purchase later in the cruise or at the end. Just like a restaurant, a hostess will greet you and take you to your table. DINING 3THREE Settle in, meet your manager or server, and get ready to set sail. Your server will invite you up to the buffet (which is all you can eat), take your drink order, and check back with you throughout the cruise. Let them know if you have any dietary restrictions or allergies. ENJOY THE VIEWS 4FOUR No need to stay stuck in your seat. Feel free to explore the ship at any time especially the rooftop lounges and outdoor spaces. Sip on a cocktail while relaxing on the outdoor deck, challenge your crew to a game of shuffle board, or snap a photo with the city s skyline as your backdrop. Lounge spaces are also available on the 1st and 2nd decks. DANCE AWAY 5FIVE Typically there s a DJ on each deck. Feel free to submit your song requests, and keep an ear open for the specialty dances. SOMETHING SWEET 6SIX Finish off your cruise with a delicious dessert. Those celebrating with us are often treated to something extra sweet. SEE YOU NEXT TIME 7SEVEN Once the boat docks, no need to hurry off. Relax as you savor the last song, finish your dessert or get your boarding photo before our crew wishes you well.
