Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Grateful Living Cruises.

  1. If using an Uber to the port, tell the driver to take the bridge instead of the tunnel to avoid construction/traffic.

  2. Stick to your assigned boarding time slot; arriving too early can lead to chaotic lines and confusion.

  3. Check deck maps to see what is directly above your cabin (e.g., the galley/food hall) to avoid noise.

  4. Reserve Aqua Theater shows as early as possible.

  5. Arrive early and purchase bingo cards ahead of time.

  6. Shift dining schedule slightly earlier or later than peak times at the Windjammer buffet to avoid crowds.

  7. Check the Royal Caribbean Cruise Planner and app periodically for sales on internet, dining, and drink packages.

  8. Book Aqua Theater shows early in the cruise to avoid weather-related cancellations later in the week.
