Creator's Key Takeaways

I hate it when we have to get off the ship.

They had coffees and pastries available and it's a very comfortable place to wait to depart.

The line to get off the ship looks long and snaked through the sententrum, but it moved very quickly.

They used facial recognition software, so we didn't need to pull out our passport. Easy peasy.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Sign up for the Crown and Anchor Society to access the departure lounge.
Call Royal Caribbean to get credit for past cruises within the last 12 months.
Book the airport shuttle through Royal Caribbean in advance.
