Our Incredible Allure of the Seas Cruise Part 9- Heading Home

As usual, the morning of departure was a sad one. 

 
We woke up pretty early and went to the Park Cafe for breakfast. I think we went there around 6:30 AM. I wish we had stopped in there a couple times during the cruise. Breakfast was very good! They had bagels with toppings made-to-order, oatmeal, fruit, and various breakfast sandwiches. I had oatmeal, and sun-dried tomatoes, eggs, and Mexican Beans in a flour tortilla. It was delicious!













 After breakfast that morning, we chose to do the self-disembark. We had a 10:20 AM flight on Southwest, and didn't want to risk any issues leaving the ship. The process was very smooth, very easy. We left the ship at 7 AM, and were in a taxi by 7:30 AM. Two tips on doing the self-assist disembarkation:

1. Be sure you each have one piece of luggage. We saw several people with lots of bags, and not only does that slow you down, it slows everyone else down. PLUS, you have to take the elevator downstairs, and that can be a long wait. We were able to use the escalators with our suitcases. Easy and fast.

2. Even if you're not sure which deck the self-assist is using, just use the Gangway button in the elevator. The elevator will take you to the correct deck.

We went through customs and were on our way. I think we got to the airport a little before 8 AM. So on the Allure, I would be comfortable taking a flight home around 10 AM.

Thank you for reading, I hope you got some helpful information. Happy cruising to all of you!
