This trip was a short girls' weekend cruise on the Disney Wonder, re-positioning from San Juan to Port Canaveral.
Transportation
We flew Southwest from MCO to SJU and had a very easy flight (about 2.5 hours). After collecting our baggage, we went out to the taxi terminal, told them where were going, and they gave us a price for the taxi and baggage from the air port to the Pan American pier. For 3 passengers with 4 pieces of luggage, we paid $26 + tip. The taxi ride was about 20 minutes or so and uneventful.
Cabin
We stayed in a Deluxe Oceanview with Veranda Aft (7118). The room shook horribly every night and had a terrible rattling in the ceiling panels. We are not sure if the rattling is unique to this room or more common, but if I had to venture a guess, all Aft cabins may experience this. None of us really slept well at night due to the vibration and the rattling.
The room is a nice size for 3 adults, and I love the split bathroom (sink and toilet on side, sink and tub on the other side). Plenty of drawer and closet space.
Food
Food in the main dining rooms was really good. Palo (specialty dining) is still simply amazing! Buffets are solid but always really crowded.
Activities
I took advantage of the movie theatre on board and watched a recently released movie in 3D. The nice thing about Disney ships is that they run current releases that Disney Corp owns. And they are free.
The new show, Frozen, was awesome. Disney's Broadway-style shows do not disappoint.
We wanted to go to a martini tasting but found out that we had to register ahead of time. We showed up at the room and were told no one booked so it was cancelled. Super disappointing.
Favorite bar to grab super fancy cocktails is the Cadillac Lounge.
Technology
Disney gives you 50MB of wifi free on the first day of the cruise until midnight, and I found it sufficiently fast. They also have several different packages available for purchase that should any need if you have to be connected while at sea.
