Have a great cruise and have a DOD for me! I was in NOLA last weekend and watched Elation shove off and make her way down the river from the 15th floor of Harrah's. Pretty sight indeed.

 

Have fun!

We had a great time. The smoothest ride yet (we like a little boat movement). We boarded at 1 p.m. And had zero wait time (we were vip with a suite but the regular line had no wait as well).

 

I personally found the buffet food lacking (hard to find "something good") but the dining room was very good. (Surf + turf for 20.00 up charge)

 

We did the chef's table and HIGHLY recommend it. 7 courses and tour of the galley plus champagne and wine. The galley is immaculate, orgainzed and efficient : very well run.

 

DH and son did the behind the fun tour and recommend it too.

 

The service was excellent all around.

 

We did the twister boat in cozumel with a beach break at passion island, recommend this as well. (Carmival excursion)

 

Any elation questions?

I'm so glad to hear you had a good time! It sounds like you made the most of your cruise. I've cruised Elation a couple times the past year and I agree it is a great ship in spite of her age. I thought the staff was phenomenal. Would love to hear more about your Chef's table experience. Welcome home and back to reality!
