Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been on Ovation of the Seas three times and Quantum of the Seas two times so I'm a little bit experienced as to what to expect on embarkation day when you go to Alaska

download the Royal Caribbean app if you haven't already done so and especially before you sail away this app will be your best friend throughout the whole Cruise

do your safety and E mustard drill as soon as you get on board because once you get that out of the way you can go have a drink and just you know be ready to cruise

I've been there seven times I'm going there for my eighth time later in June of 2024 so I love it

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download the Royal Caribbean app before sailing
Connect to Royal Wi-Fi as soon as you board
Complete the safety drill immediately upon boarding
Avoid the Windjammer Buffet on embarkation day due to crowds
