Creator's Key Takeaways

I signed up and did iFly just a few hours after getting on board and it was a lot of fun and completely free.

I recommend going all the way to the back of the ship and sitting at the tables there if the weather is nice.

The shows in 270 seem a little bit better, but the technology is much more impressive, so the shows end up being more entertaining just from that aspect.

I keep saying a sunny day in Alaska is hard to beat.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Do the muster drill quickly upon boarding to reduce stress.
Use free breakfast room service for a convenient morning meal.
Take seasickness tablets from the medical center if needed.
