Creator's Key Takeaways

we're going to give it a brutally honest review of the Allure of the Seas and let you know if Royal Carabiner is good as always or are some things slipping

one complaint I've got of those cabins is that they are so warm the air conditioning is not great so it's a little bit uncomfortable

she's looking a little bit old she looks a little bit old-fashioned in my opinion she really does she was only built in 2009 but she looks a lot older now

entertainment is outstanding here and well we've had such a fabulous time and we've been truly truly entertained the whole Cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book entertainment in advance as shows sell out quickly
Consider saving money by not buying drinks packages or specialty dining
Be flexible with show times due to booking constraints
