Creator's Key Takeaways

We've never sailed on a prima class ship.

So far very subdued vibes and the music isn't too loud.

I love that it is simple. It makes up for that. You know, the bars are pretty hectic.

This is incredible. Okay, so wings and I got the pretzel bites and a side of rice.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Know your room number before boarding, as it's not printed on the key card.
βœ“If you want to try different foods at the buffet, sit at a counter rather than a table.
βœ“Use the iPad ordering system at bars for quicker drink service.
