Boarding Norwegian Dawn was easy and fast

We boarded the Norwegian Dawn and the process was easy and pretty quick. Rita had made reservations for us to have priority onboarding, which helped. She knows that standing in lines is not my favorite thing. The boarding itself at noon does not mean we get access to our cabins. The ship is leaving at 04:00 PM so we will get our cabin by 02:00 PM
