i would gladly come back and do a spring break again especially knowing some of those best practices that i have

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book the extreme ends of the ship to reduce noise from late-night college kids.
✓Buy the ultimate dining package to escape to specialty restaurants.
✓Get out early on sea days to enjoy the pool before crowds arrive.
✓Arrive early at CocoCay to avoid the afternoon party atmosphere.
✓Stay on the ship in Nassau to avoid the mob scene at Junkanoo Beach.

College kids being loud, obnoxious, and drunk — In reality, it wasn't that bad; the kids were well-behaved and respectful.
Dress code of younger generation — They dressed nicely but with revealing outfits; it didn't bother the creator personally.
