Creator's Key Takeaways

The drinks weren't boozy enough. They were nice, but they were not the strongest drink.

For us on this particular one, I think it's fair to say that pay as you go worked out better.

It wasn't consistently good. No, but I think you just have to go with the classics, I think.

I can't imagine going back to Giovani ever again.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check the dynamic pricing for the drinks package before you buy.
โœ“Use the key for early embarkation and Wi-Fi if you can get it at a discounted price.
โœ“For breakfast, go to the international food stand for English back bacon.
โœ“Book specialty dining on the first day to use the Key discount.
โœ“Sit by the bar in the Windjammer buffet to find a seat more easily.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Will the drinks package be worth it? โ€” Check dynamic pricing and consider pay-as-you-go if you're a moderate drinker.
Is the food good on a large ship? โ€” Stick to classics in the main dining room and try the fish and chips for a great included option.
Is it too family-oriented? โ€” There are adult-only areas like the Salarium, but expect a family vibe overall.
