Creator's Key Takeaways

We have eaten in some of them. Um, we have not gotten into the main dining, but the Wind Jammer has been fantastic.

You have to give it a try. You have to go do it at least once. It is a really cool experience.

I would pass on the Mason jar. It was 45 minutes before we got our drink.

This has been a fantastic sailing. There's a reason why this is one of the highest rated ships that Royal Caribbean has.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book shows ahead of time or as soon as you get on board to avoid standby lines.
Wear stretchy pants for the Royal Railway dining experience due to large portions.
If you're bored on the ship, it's your fault—there's plenty to do.
