Creator's Key Takeaways

these are not criticisms in any way these are merely our observations and hopefully you'll find them useful

there's no coffee or snacks after 11 P.M and that's disappointed quite a few people

if you have a drinks packaging you get alcoholic drinks up to I think it's 18 which covers pretty much most drinks

the more prepared you are the better Cruise you'll have

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be aware that espresso coffee and snacks are not available after 11 PM
If you have a drinks package, note that drinks over the limit are charged in full
Check your account regularly for incorrect charges and visit Guest Services to resolve

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Not knowing about menu changesCheck menus later in the cruise if nothing appeals on the first day, as they change twice a week.
Unexpected charges on drinks packageBe aware that drinks over the limit are charged in full; check prices before ordering.
Disembarkation timingIf your disembarkation time doesn't suit, visit Guest Services early to request a change.
