Creator's Key Takeaways

Carry on board your essentials and don't leave them with your suitcases with the porters.

We strongly recommend traveling the day before or and staying in the hotel overnight knowing that you'll be fully refreshed.

The staff on board do a fantastic job and deserve the gratuitities, but I do understand that the tipping can be different in different cultures and areas around the world.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Visit your muster station immediately after boarding.
βœ“Download the Royal Caribbean app and connect to ship's Wi-Fi.
βœ“Travel the day before your cruise to avoid delays.
βœ“Book activities and shows early through the app.
