Creator's Key Takeaways

new ships will always cost you more so answer your question honestly is just that basically when Utopia comes out icon 2 that will drive prices down for existing ships

I love walking around Old San Juan last time we were there um we walked off the ship and we just walk we just get off the ship and we just explore Old San Juan

Hideaway Beach really sounds awesome um I'm looking forward to seeing what all the dining venues are for me dining has become a huge draw for what makes Royal Caribbean fun

Creator's Tips & Advice

Expect some things not to be 100% ready on inaugural sailings, but it's still a fun experience.
Junior Suites are worth it depending on the price difference from a balcony cabin.
Book new ships early if you want them, but prices will drop as newer ships come out.
Stay in Orlando if flying in late and drive to the port the next day to save on hotel rates.
