Creator's Key Takeaways

You want to get your money's worth and get on the ship as as you know, you want to be on the ship as much as possible.

Come hungry, guys. I guess we should probably should have shared that before because you're going to want to eat and cruise the first cruise.

We explore the entire ship. The first things we usually do is we go to all the kids clubs.

Make sure you spend some time with your room host and let them know early on your preferences.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do your check-in right when it opens to get early boarding.
Schedule spa treatments, excursions, and nursery reservations ahead of time.
Arrive at the port at least one or two days early to avoid travel issues.
Explore the entire ship on embarkation day to get your bearings.
Unpack completely in your room once it's ready to feel settled.
Meet your room host early to communicate preferences.

Our names are Justin and Lacey Zachman. Our journey began in 2018 when we started a travel/lifestyle vlog. Our aim was to capture and preserve memories from various life events. This is the origin of the name "Z Roll," inspired by "B-Roll," a term rooted in the early days of film editing. Back then, editors incorporated supplementary footage, or B-roll, alongside the main content. As a result, we named our YouTube Channel "Our Z Roll," symbolizing the B-roll of our life. Given that Zachman is our last name, "Our Z Roll" holds special significance!
