Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been on a lot of cruises, and I can honestly say that Star of the Seas has some of the best shows I've ever seen at sea.

The venue capacity issues on this ship are honestly pretty frustrating.

The included dining on this ship is the best free food I've had on many Royal Caribbean ships, hands down.

The cruise fairs themselves are already at a premium, and we're talking a $1,000 or more per person for an interior cabin on a seven night sailing.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book everything the moment it becomes available using the Royal Caribbean app.
Arrive at least 45 minutes early for shows in the Aquadome and Absolute Zero.
Consider lunchtime instead of dinner for specialty dining if flexible.
Budget accordingly and take advantage of pre-cruise sales.
