Creator's Key Takeaways

I was fortunate enough to cruise on board Indie in October 2025 on a mini cruise out of the port of Southampton.

And me and my wife cruise, it tends to be an inside cabins.

despite being one of the older ships that I have sailed on, it was still a great cabin and had everything you expect.

The cabin is shown its age in some places, but nothing that is too concerning.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring plenty of adapters and USB plugs due to limited plug sockets.
Move the extra life jacket to use the small storage spot at the top of the wardrobe.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Cabin size and comfortThe bed is decent and comfortable, though not the biggest; the room feels larger with mirrors.
Storage spaceThere is plenty of storage with shelves, drawers, and a wardrobe, but some spots require moving items like the life jacket.

YouTube Video Description

Join me as I take you on a tour of stateroom 9403 onboard the Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas cruise ship, which me and my wife stayed in for our Northern Europe mini cruise in October 2025. The inside cabin is located at very aft of deck 9 and offers easy access to the main glass lifts. It sits in the middle of the ship making it easy to walk up to the pool deck and buffet and down to the main dining rooms and entertainment venues, whilst still maintaining the buffer of other cabins above and below you. #9403 #InsideCabin #Stateroom #Cabin #RoomTour #IndependenceoftheSeas #RoyalCaribbean
