Creator's Key Takeaways

this was from our late december 2021 cruise on the odyssey of the seas

the windjammer marketplace buffet usually located midship on the pool deck is going to be very busy on embarkation day

if you're on an oasis or quantum class ship you might find it less hectic to eat at the solarium bistro instead

remember to take in the views as your ship leaves port

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check large or heavy luggage with porters at the terminal
โœ“Keep passport, cruise documentation, and medication with you
โœ“Tip the porter about one dollar per luggage checked
โœ“Go to the Windjammer buffet early or consider the Solarium Bistro for less hectic dining
โœ“Complete the mandatory safety briefing after lunch
