We awoke to another beautiful morning and watched as the ship pulled into Ocho Rios harbor

 

Pilot boat waiting for the Liberty of the Seas

 

Marine Police came out and circled the ship

 

 

The port of Ocho Rios awaits at the end of the long pier

 

Did I mention that it was a long pier?

 

 

I'm deliberately quoting a bunch of pics and not hitting reply. Thanks for these. I'm about to go back on Freedom for the first time in 8 years. Your Labadee pics really helped me pick out what is different today than it was in 2008. Thank you. But from that trip I had some very specific memories of sailing into a port and watching from my balcony and i couldn't remember what port it was. These pictures helped me remember it was Ocho Rios. Fortunately or Unfortunately I won't be going back there on Freedom this trip, but thanks for the pictures.

Madison81,

 

Thank you for that terrific review. One of the best. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it as well as looking at the great pics you took.

Small world...I just posted a picture of the balcony of 9338 that I had peaked around the partition and taken :)

 

Saw that and was delighted! thank you for that! and for the compasses! The review and pictures were great!

[Madison81]

Love reliving our cruise through your views..We were also on the same sailing and went to Blue Hole too which we loved!! We had great weather and a great time On Liberty..sorry you had a bad experience in the MDR our staff was great and the reason we went back each night for the 2hr dinner..

 

l'm glad to hear that you had great service :) It looked like it was just the pair of servers that we had, and it was so unlike our past experiences. It actually worked out well as we had a chance to eat in the Windjammer one night and also at Johnny Rockets, which we hadn't done in the past (for dinner anyways).

 

 

Thank you so much for the Liberty review! Your pictures are great. We really appreciate the pics in your Explorer/Bermuda review as well.

 

As we sit here this evening with snow, sleet, and freezing rain your reviews remind us of our upcoming Liberty cruise to Bermuda and the Caribbean where it will be warm and sunny!

 

Glad you enjoyed both reviews! I know what you mean...we are expecting yet another snow storm tomorrow and with putting this review together I can't wait for September to be back on the Liberty headed to Bermuda :D

Great review! We also enjoyed seeing The Villages in Florida.

Beautiful pictures! And loved your commentary!

[ktfelder]

Thank you so much. We will be on the Liberty in less than 2 weeks. Really enjoyed your review and photos!

[jayblue]

I was supposed to do my first solo on this one, but had to cancel. I am glad to see yhat this would've been a great choice. I am also glad that you shared this time with us. Thank you.

[merdon]

Thanks for sharing. Your pictures are beautiful. Haven't been to Ocho Rios in a while. I see things have changed a lot. Maybe we'll go back one day soon.

Great review. Did I overlook the hours the ice rink is open for skating?

[lutzkibbutz]

Loving the review. We are doing this trip in April

 

Hi, and sorry to crash this thread, people! This is for Barnaby100...

 

Hey, it looks like Cruise Critic had to close our LOS Oct./2014 T/A due to its sheer size, so I found you here. I appreciate the help with attempting to get a refund from British Airways. Here is your last message which was THE last one on that thread;

 

 

"You don't need the boarding passes. Just proof that you booked and took the flight . Do you have the booking email ?"

 

Further to this, we DO still have our boarding passes and emails. I have contacted B.A. via email and have not received anything from them other than a canned acknowledgement that did not seem to jive with my request. It would be difficult for me to call them in Jolly Ol' England but am up for it. Do you have any ideas on how to get some satisfaction? Should I get a lawyer to do up a letter or...???

 

Thanks again so much for the assistance; we never would have realized this avenue might be open to us!

 

Cheers,

Jeff

Hi. I just saw this. Go onto flyertalk and then onto the BA forum. There is a thread there. But they will help you on that website. You have to send them a request clearly stating that you wish to claim under this legislation.

You won't need a lawyers letter.

Thank you for the awesome review! We are sailing the same itinerary on Monday! Btw, my parents live in the Villages! We are here now actually for a few nights pre-cruise!
