Creator's Key Takeaways

The first mistake you want to avoid as a firsttime Royal Caribbean cruiser is not researching the ports of call.

One of those things will not allow you to even get on the cruise. That first thing is going to be your documentation.

The good excursions go fast. They go first.

Not flying in on the day of your trip because so much can go wrong.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Research ports of call before booking.
Ensure you have proper documentation (passport or birth certificate with ID).
Don't wait to book excursions; they sell out quickly.
Fly in at least a day before your cruise departure.
Put your phone in airplane mode to avoid roaming charges.
Book specialty dining, Wi-Fi, and beverage packages in advance.
