Creator's Key Takeaways

I love side A, leaving Miami cuz it's absolutely beautiful.

Dining is We should have a whole entire episode on just dining and kind of teaching everyone how to do it because it's literally the Hunger Games and everyone panics about it.

Don't print your luggage tags. Just go to the port. The porters are standing there to tag your luggage.

Dress code? None. You do you, man. Do you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download the app immediately after booking to select your boarding time.
Fly in the day before your cruise, or take the very first direct flight if flying in the morning of.
Book dining reservations at midnight to get the best availability.
Buy the $300 bar tab in advance to get the extra $50 bonus.
Do not try to cancel and rebook shore things to use Sailor Loot; the refund converts to Sailor Loot, not cash.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Running out of food during the dayDon't worry; the Galley (food court) offers fresh options like salad, burgers, sushi, and tacos.
Getting a table without a reservationTry walking up to the restaurant, as availability depends on the specific host or hostess on duty.
Losing Sailor Loot or Bar TabUse it or lose it; spend it on the ship before disembarking as it does not carry over.
