Creator's Key Takeaways

we both work full-time jobs so anything that saves us time and maybe even some money we're very interested in

we've been on adults only cruises and many familyfriendly cruises for example with Royal Caribbean

the best option may be a guaranteed cabin where you leave it to the cruise line to assign you your cabin

please please please remember you should always aim to get back to the ship at least 1 hour before the all board time

Consider your cabin type based on budget, views, and noise sensitivity
Don't overpack and plan outfits based on daily activities
Arrive at your cruise port early, especially if flying or driving from far
