Creator's Key Takeaways

We spent a week on Independence of the Seas on a 7ight Western Caribbean cruise.

The ship has 15 decks and a passenger capacity of about 4,300 at maximum capacity.

One thing to know about cruising, if you haven't done it before, is that the elevators are typically quite slow, and it's no different on the ship, they are quite slow some days.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a light sweater for shows in Studio B or the Royal Theater.
Register early for kids' programs to reserve spots.
Be aware that chair reservation is common despite posted signs.
