Creator's Key Takeaways
With Royal Caribbean, there's no such thing as a bad ship. Only one that doesn't match what you're looking for.
A travel agent can save you time and money. They're the ones that wait on the phone for hours with the cruise line to resolve issues on your behalf.
If you want travel insurance and you buy it very close to your cruise, you run the risk that something has already happened and therefore isn't a valid reason to submit a claim because it's a pre-existing condition.
For internet, specialty dining, drink packages, and excursions, you're going to find the best deal as early as possible, months or even up to a year before your cruise.
