Creator's Key Takeaways

avoid getting underneath the pool don't be underneath the pool basically on any ship

stay away from being around the noise congested areas around a bar area around the main entrance into the promenade area around the casino area

another time and you might want to avoid is a connecting stateroom unless you want to be next door to somebody you know

anything at the berry after the ship or anything at the very forward section of the ship because those will be the cabins that will moved the most
