What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œHad the experience been based on the cabin alone, MSE's Yacht Club Deluxe Suite would rank second. However, combined with the elevated service, private amenities, and gourmet dining, the suite takes the crown as my top cruise balcony experience of the year.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œPersonally for me no cruise ship can compare to celebrity Beyond The Experience left a lasting impression.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œThe performance was captivating and professional. It incorporated intricately designed sets and technology to transport guests straight into the world of Willy Wonka.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œMy favorite place to hang out on board is this space called the Overlook. It has stunning views right in the front of the ship.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œIn my opinion, any day at a cruise lines private destination is going to be awesome.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog
The Watch-outs

β€œmy grandma passed away while I was cruising back in 2017”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œI was absolutely shocked and flabbergasted by this experience. I broke down in tears with the stress overwhelming me.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œI cringe every time I see people doing that in the Leo dining room. What the heck is wrong with people? It's just disgusting.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œI couldn't wait to disembark for good.”

πŸ…AuthorityCruise Blog

β€œI hated the tolerance for smoking on board and I wished that the rules were stricter.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Cruise Blog.

  1. Check out the AquaDome Market for a complimentary food hall option with six different stands.

  2. If you are a vegetarian, be aware that food hall options on Icon class ships can be quite limiting compared to other vessels.

  3. Focus on one or two highlights during port visits rather than trying to cram everything in.

  4. Pack fast-acting antacids, pain relievers, stool softeners, and motion sickness medication.

  5. Fly in a few days early to combat jet lag before the cruise begins.

  6. Use the pool during off-peak hours to avoid chair hogs.

  7. If you're sailing with kids, make sure to register them for Adventure Ocean on the first day.

  8. Just be sure to make a reservation [for ice skating], as seats can fill up quickly.
