Everything about our cruise went exceedingly well. I went with two granddaughters. Getting through the pre-boarding process was fast and easy. Wait staff was always great and food was really good. Added $ to the gratuity of the main waiter who held onto and returned gloves that were part of the 8 year old's pirate costume. Loved our stateroom and host. Added $ to his gratuity because he was so thorough. Fun times with onboard and port events. Prepaid photo package- worth the money. Shopped onboard at every opportunity. Youngest granddaughter enjoyed the Oceaneers Club. Bottom line, very enjoyable experience. I filled out an onboard review and one online after returning home. All positive. Once in a lifetime trip, probably, for us. More expensive than our previous cruises but we willingly went and enjoyed. After arriving home, I noticed an additional $10.00 had been added to the card charges the day after we left the ship. I never gave it much thought until days later. I mean $10 wasn't a significant amount and most people probably wouldn't have paid any attention to it. But I had reviewed the printed out charges from the day we disembarked and everything seemed to be accounted for, so curiosity caused me to call DCL to inquire. After a lengthy wait and a few holds, I was told that the $10 was for a missing DCL laundry bag. I asked what it looked like since I was truly clueless. I explained I never saw that bag and I was the one who had used the closet where it was supposed to reside. You would think I would have noticed it when I put clothes in there or took out the life vests as soon as we got in the stateroom. Well, I have since read reviews that this has happened to a number of people. It's hard to know what you may be accused of taking (and charged for) if you don't have a checklist of what's supposed to be in there. For some reviewers it was a phone for $200. Minor, I know, but kind of sour note to an otherwise great time. Sorry we only used plastic grocery bags for our dirty laundry.

Great......but make sure everything is in place, or you will be charged....even if you never saw and don't have whatever is deemed missing!
