Creator's Key Takeaways

This has been the smoothest imbarcation process that we've ever experienced. This is cruise number 21.

The colors are very very vibrant. And so now that we're here and we're seeing it in person, I mean, it's in the same location as I guess boardwalk would be, but it's totally different.

We love the size. We love the space. We love the fact that we don't feel crowded.

It's a hard pass for me, but I'm glad you conquered your fears.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Take plenty of naps because the ship is big and there's a lot to do.
✓Don't try to cram everything into one sailing; it's impossible to experience everything.
✓On port days, the cost for Crown's Edge is $39, which is cheaper than sea days.
✓If you book an excursion through the cruise line, they will tell you where to go outside of the port.
✓Take time to explore the different areas of the ship when you first get on.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Overwhelmed by the size of the ship — Take time to explore different areas when you first get on the ship to get your bearings.
Navigating such a massive ship — Use the steps that point to the forward of the ship and look at the direction of figures like Rover to know your location.
