Creator's Key Takeaways

We spent two weeks on the ship crossing the Atlantic. Was it worth the price?

The room, the cabin. Um, bit of a disappointment really that Royal just have this this kind of approach of not upgrading or renovating any of the rooms on their ships.

I think they've done a really good job with the amplification program.

The service was amazing on the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Bring a travel adapter with USB ports.
โœ“Be prepared in advance if you want a reservation for a meal anywhere.
โœ“Consider a transatlantic cruise if you want to spend time relaxing.
