Creator's Key Takeaways

On Royal Caribbean, a can of soda that costs $3 at the bar will cost you $7.50 in the mini bar.

In 2023, Carnival kicked out 147 passengers just for smoking in their cabins.

Those railings aren't made to hold your weight. A simple slip, a sudden move by the ship, or just not paying attention and you could fall overboard.

Children under 12 never allowed alone in the cabin. Teenagers from 13 to 17 only with someone checking on them regularly.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Avoid using the minibar; order drinks from bars where they're included or bring your own snacks.
✓Never smoke in the cabin; use designated smoking areas only.
✓Do not take towels or robes; they have RFID chips and you will be charged.
✓Use magnets instead of sticky hooks to decorate cabin walls.
✓Do not wash clothes in the cabin sink; use ship laundry or pack enough clothes.
✓Always close one door before opening the other to avoid wind tunnel effects.
