Creator's Key Takeaways

I think somebody asked us if we're going to bring an icon clash to Galveston. We haven't confirmed or denied that.

There are challenges with building itineraries that we think are marketable enough to sustain a lot of capacity in the market.

The Discovery class will be Panama Canal capable, which means it'll go through the Panama Canal and that allows it to be able to do the Alaska in the summer and then get back into the Caribbean.

Baltimore is going to be a seasonal port. It'll be coming back every summer, but they're simply not putting it out in the winter and keeping it a year- round product anymore.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Never Google phone numbers for Royal Caribbean; always use the official website to find contact information.
✓If you're told no on a repricing request, call back until you get the answer you want.
✓Tip bartenders an extra dollar even with a drink package for better service.
✓Work with a good travel agent to avoid call center issues.
