Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a longer sailing to fully explore the Mardi Gras ship
Use the forward staircase on deck eight to avoid casino crowds when going to the theater
Request outdoor seating at Cucina for a quieter dining experience
Try the dark chocolate rum from Roatan

Feeling overwhelmed by the ship's size and layoutIt gets easier; remember deck numbers 6, 7, 8, 16, 17, and 18 for key areas
Wearing masks indoorsIt becomes a non-issue; most people wore masks voluntarily, and it didn't affect the experience
