They should have either informed us from the beginning and/or turned the ship around when everyone was sick. One of the worst nights of my life spending five hours with an entire ship load of people that were COLD, PUKING, AND MISERABLE.

Later we found out that the earlier cruise, the lunchtime cruise, had a similar experience with the majority of people getting sick. In addition they turned the air down so low, in order to help those who were sick. Of those, about 40% were throwing up into the restrooms and provided sickness bags. Out of the office party, there were about 100-150 people - half of which ended up curled up in a ball lying in chairs, on the floors, or on seats of the slot machines with the motion sickness. The staff failed to inform anyone that the waters were known to be very rough that night. Soon after launching, no one could walk in a straight line, we were left weaving and grabbing onto the nearest handrails. We then proceeded to explore the boat and have dinner - which was very disappointing (don't try the fish sandwich). Everyone in my party took the pills and signed the waiver. When we arrived we were given motion sickness medicine for 'just-in-case'. It sounded like a great idea and evening out. Most I have won on boat at Canaveral is $500- not bad for evening's work.įour of us took the cruise as part of an office Christmas party. When you go to gamble you should be prepared to be okay with losing some or all- but you will have fun and who knows you may come home winner. I lost $100 and other friends lost $40 and $25. Oh you are probably wondering if we won orl lost. So my advice is if you are in Jacksonville and want to do something different give the boat a try.

Not so bad going out because you can look around but coming back was just too long. Another negative is that it took one hour to get out before machines turned on and hour back in. If we had no other cruise to compare to Jacksonville then would have been satisfied. We did not eat so have no idea how the food is. Canaveral cruise has many and you can always get something. We saw one cocktail waitress the whole time and had to go to the bar to get drinks. Had always wanted to do the Jacksonville cruise and glad we did but won't go back. We have been on the cape canaveral victory cruise ship and it is bigger with more slots and so much nicer.
