Creator's Key Takeaways
We've never traveled with Royal Caribbean before, and you can join us as we check out the Royal Prominard, the ice rink, Playmaker Sports Bar, the water parks and water slides, the Flow Rider, and everything else on board.
Almost exactly 15 minutes after getting out of our taxi, one of our quickest embarations ever.
We really enjoyed the atmosphere in here and ended up staying for a few drinks and watching some of the sport from the many TVs that are all around the room.
It turned out to be a lot of fun. The skaters were amazing and the dancing and choreography worked really well and we loved the show and would definitely go see one again.
