Creator's Key Takeaways

I've just been on a Royal Caribbean cruise. It was just a two nighter weekender on Independence of the Sea.

I felt for Royal Caribbean which is a vibrant colorful brand and premium brand with prices to match. I was expecting the cabin to be... a little bit more upbeat, modern, anything contemporary, but it was still the same as it was when I went on years ago.

The crew were awesome. They were so friendly. They were so polite, so patient... they were fabulous, fabulous, fabulous.

The food in the main dining room I had for dinner was very nice indeed. I was very pleased with that.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you ever see a solo in the buffet, remember it's actually quite stressful to navigate that and to get a seat or to keep your seat.
βœ“Always double check that solo cabins aren't priced higher than a standard cabin.
βœ“If you've got issues on a cruise, communicate it to someone and say what you want.
