Creator's Key Takeaways

Unlimited lobster tails. It was just amazing.

We were really pleasantly surprised, particularly as we received an email from Royal Caribbean about 2 weeks beforehand telling us to make sure that we get there in plenty of time.

The room, whilst it was in a great position on the ship, it's looking tired.

I think Royal Caribbean do an amazing job of embarcation.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Complete the muster drill on the Royal app as soon as you board.
Try the unlimited lobster tails in the Windjammer buffet on embarkation day if available.
Use the Crown Lounge to avoid guest services if you are a Diamond member.
