Cruise Booking
* Booked for the Cruise directly through their website
* The cost came to ~65k for 4 pax, all sharing a Ocean view - Premier room
Getting to Mumbai
* Went to Mumbai by flight
* Booked through Goibibo for ~25k (one way - 4 pax)
* Flight time was 2 hrs
* Took pre-paid taxi from Airport to Cruise terminal. It was called 'cool cabs' and the condition of the car was pathetic!
Inside the Cruise
* The check-in takes a real long time, due to long queues before entering the Gate itself
* The room was decent with bunk beds for kids and view of the ocean through a glass window
* Lot of bottled water provided in the room
* Food: Unlimited Buffet for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. Pretty tasty and sumptuous.
* Entertainment: Lot of programmes, suitable for both Adults and Kids
** TV has very limited channels. So, may try copying some Movies on USB
* The only drawback is the lack of FREE WIFI. It costs about $6 for 2 hrs of WIFI, which is ridiculous! Also, there won't be any Phone signal and Data for most of the trip. So, its a complete Detox of sorts!

* Stayed in Hotel INON International till evening. 3Bed A/C room costed 1500/-
* Took the night bus from Kochi to Bangalore
