We had a great time on our 4 night Bahama and Coco Cay cruise on Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Seas, but trying to get off of the ship was a disaster. We were given a time to get off of 9:10 so we got up at 6:00 to be sure to be out of the stateroom by 8:00 as requested and still have time to get a bite to eat before going to our appointed area.We had a lot of walking to do and when we got there we were told to go back to where we had just come from and just get in line. When we got there it was bedlam, there was one line and every one coming from all parts of the ship had to get into 1 line. I found out later that only one gangway was open. I am sure we walked for more than an hour. Our driver was there waiting for us since 10:00 and it was well after 11:30 when we finally got off of the ship. My main complaint is that with the ship wifi why could they not let us know that we were going to be in line for quite a while and maybe make some accommodations for th older people who, like me have trouble walking and standing for a long time, My friend an I are both 80 years old and this was dreadful after a wonderful cruise.
