We had euros left we needed to spend so we tipped on euros.

We had 14 on the 6/9 Wonder of the Seas sailing…..8 adults and 6 kids (ages 12-7). We interported joining the cruise in Rome that started in Barcelona. The app was not really functional (which was a downer). However, the ease in joining and exiting the cruise far outweighed the app not working. I would interport every cruise every time if I could. I never heard an exact number but I assume the ship was at 50-60% capacity. So some of our perceptions of the ship may not be fair or consistent when the ship is at 100% capacity. Positives The ship is the nicest, most thought out, most perfect ship for the group we were with. The boardwalk neighborhood setup with the free carousel, free foosball, free old school arcade games was a huge winner with our kids. The regular arcade was a blade too but can get expensive quick. The Central Park neighborhood was popular with the adults to grab a drink and sit outside pre-dinner. It was just beautiful at night. The kids loved the water slides and the ultimate abyss. The mini golf course was awesome. It was never hard to find a pool chair (probably a low capacity issue). The dining staff was amazing. We had 2 tables a 4 top with 4 kids and an 8 top next to it with everyone else. Willy/Jumai were our wait staff and they were amazing with the children. They spent time with them talking about the menu options made napkin animals and were great. Every kid spent some of their souvenir money on buying something for the two waitstaff. One of our party has a gluten allergy the head waiter came over every night with the next days menu to make sure he could have something he was excited about. The food in the dining room was consistently good to great. We had an ocean view balcony the room was great. Lots of storage lots of outlets. The bed was comfortable and our daughter enjoyed the trundle. Windjammer food was consistently good to great. Never had trouble finding table to put our 14 relatively close together. The negatives. Not many to be honest. The food in the Steakhouse was ok but the dining room was good and consistent enough that it wasn’t worth the 60 dollar upcharge. I had never been to Europe so we spent a lot of time exploring our 6 stops. Ok Caribbean cruises I have been know to never get off the boat. So I didn’t have enough time on the boat. My wife is vegan. The vegan dining room options were hit and miss. However they did have dedicated Vegan options at every meal and that was a win. Lots of fruit not enough vegetables. Not negative or positive just funny. In Marseille, Greenpeace (or a similar organization) had a bunch of kayaks baracading the port so we couldn’t get in. They were protesting carbon emissions. After about an hour of talks the coast guard set up some Red Cross type vessels near the kayakers then they has a Coast Guard Speed boat speed past the kayakers and flip them all over and pulled them out of the water. It was handled safely no one was hurt. It was amazing to watch from a distance. There’s so much more I’m happy to answer any questions.

My family and I are interporting on the Wonder in a few weeks. The cruise is listed as starting and finishing in Barcelona. We are arriving half way thru the scheduled cruise in Rome and Departing from Rome 7 days later. My question is this. The itenerary has us arriving in Barcelona (the listed cruises departure stop) at 5am. Will those passengers interporting be able to get off the boat for visiting Barcelona early or will we have to wait for the departing passengers to exit the boat before getting off for the day

So…my family and I are taking a cruise on the Wonder this summer. It looks like our 7 day cruise is beginning in the middle of the listed cruise for the Wonder on the App So when I try to access my cruise on the app it says it’s not accessible yet, on the website I can access it fine. Is there a workaround for this?
