Creator's Key Takeaways

And the private sund deck is amazing. I could not take video because, well, I could have, but I tried to be respectful of other people and there was a lot of people in swimsuits up there laying out.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go to breakfast at Olive and Sea earlier to avoid crowds.
Be one of the first to board to maximize exploration time.
Go straight to decks 11 and 12 after the muster drill to secure a good spot for the sailaway party.
Use your concierge card for free popcorn anytime, not just during shows.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting on the ship efficientlyBook concierge for first time on a specific ship; take advantage of early boarding.
Finding the kids clubNote that Edge (11-14 year old club) has a restroom right outside, which is convenient.
Muster drill logisticsYou must present your Key to the World card at your muster station; everything is closed during the drill.
