What Creators Are Saying
Selected quotes from our creator panel.
“He was simply amazing. Every little thing we needed, he took care of.”
“The overall process is the best we've ever seen on any ship by any cruise line.”
“The Icon of the Seas was completely different. All four DJs we saw and heard during this cruise were exceptional.”
“the ocean view Cafe is the best the best buffet I've seen yet in 20 years of cruising on across all the ships all the cruise lines the gold standard so far”
“The Horizon Court buffet just kills it on both the Majestic Princess and here on the Regal Princess.”
“Horrible planning because uh it just doesn't work very well for large volumes of people.”
“It was uh it was a mess at night. No directions, no map, no tour, no guide to kind of go with us.”
“they don't bring you back down here to where the tenders could easily pick you up take you back to the ship instead you have to do a cable car which is a complete mess”
“I'm going to throw them under the bus and back up and run over them again because they really screwed up the trip quite well by losing our luggage”
“I'm so afraid that someone's going to come and snatch my baby.”
Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Oakland Travel.
Always clarify if tour instructions are in local time or ship time to avoid being late.
Check your excursion ticket for the specific meeting location and zone number.
Stay on ship time when returning from shore excursions.
If doing a northbound Alaska cruise, consider starting in Vancouver to see the city before the cruise begins.
Ensure you have your passport ready when departing for excursions that cross into Canada.
Ocean view balcony staterooms are worth the extra money compared to interior rooms.
Bring USB chargers and manage power needs as older ships may have limited outlets.
Avoid bringing extension cords as they will be flagged by security during X-ray.
