Creator's Key Takeaways
I actually hadn't cruised from the West Coast in 15 years.
I'm not sure that I would do it again.
I had a fantastic time on the cruise itself, and I loved experiencing Ovation of the Seas for the first time.
For me, this is mostly due to the distance and the cost to travel to California.

I tried a Royal Caribbean cruise from California, but it wasn't totally what I expected. As a Floridian, cruising from LA was a bigger hassle than I thought it would be. Here's what it was like, and whether I'd do it again. Note: Ovation of the Seas and Quantum of the Seas both sail from LA, so check Royal Caribbean's website to see which of these sister ships is currently sailing!
