Creator's Key Takeaways

the main dining room on Royal Caribbean is one of the major focal points of the cruise ship and today I've got 21 tips for the best possible experience there

my recommendation is to really know the ins and outs of the main dining room so that way you can avoid any surprises while on board

order more than one appetizer main course and dessert anyone that's new to cruising may find this a bit of a change or even a Shockey tool

let your waiter know your preferences waiters in the main dining room are highly attentive and they can handle most requests with ease
