Creator's Key Takeaways

I was extremely fortunate because I cruised on icon of the Seas the week before she encountered propulsion problems

I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon unfortunately and I don't have a problem with the people who are in the casino gambling and smoking

I would often tell if you ask me in general how long of cruise I would say seven nights because it's a good mix of sea days and port days

I'm with you on that as a nonsmoker Dave but I think it's not going to be anytime soon unfortunately

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book your drink package now to lock in the price, you can cancel and rebook if there's a better deal on Black Friday
Fill out the special needs form for CPAP machines and medical devices before the cruise
Sit in the front of the shuttle to Maya Chan to avoid bumpy ride if pregnant
Go to the reservations area on embarkation day to book show reservations
Use a power brick (portable battery) to charge devices around the ship

Is a five-night cruise long enough for a first cruise?Seven nights is better mix of sea and port days, but five nights is fine; avoid three-night cruises as too short
