Creator's Key Takeaways

Welcome onboard Odyssey of the Seas, Royal Caribbean’s newest ship!

We have had quite the white whale trying to get on board Odyssey that's a long story for another time.

We got a balcony and not just a balcony let's take a look here this is a big room.

The fried pickle has been my favorite thing which usually is my favorite thing but those ones were really good.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the Royal Caribbean app to book shows and entertainment once on board; no internet package needed.
Complete the muster drill via the app by watching the video and listening to the horn, then check in at your assembly station.
Diamond members get four free beverages per day, redeemable at most bars and restaurants.

YouTube Video Description

Odyssey of the Seas Day 1 Date Filmed: October 3, 2021 Hello Happy Travelers! Welcome onboard Odyssey of the Seas, Royal Caribbean’s newest ship! This is a Quantum Plus class ship! This ship is very similar to Quantum class ships, such as Anthem of the Seas, but has new features unique to Odyssey! Some of the classic Quantum inclusions found on Odyssey include the SeaPlex, Two70, Cafe at Two70, the North Star, Ripcord by iFly, Bionic Bar, Flowrider, and the Royal Esplanade! New features include Playmakers located in the SeaPlex, SkyPad, laser tag, Zone Zero (virtual reality game), Lime & Coconut Bar, Caribbean Pool Deck, and El Loco Fresh! Today is boarding day! We are leaving from Fort Lauderdale, Florida (Port Everglades) on a six night sailing visiting Perfect Day at CocoCay, Costa Maya, and Cozumel Mexico! We have waited a long time to board this ship, so today was very exciting! We love our cabin for this sailing, which is an aft balcony, and I can tell we are going to have some amazing wake views! Per usual with boarding day, we cover an array of house keeping items, such as discussing the boarding process, required documents, showing our stateroom, explaining E-Muster Drill, and making show reservations on the Royal Caribbean App! Another exciting thing about this cruise is that this is our first sailing reaching Diamond status with the Crown & Anchor Society, so we showed and discussed some of the new benefits! We spent a lot of time today exploring the ship, watching a beautiful sail away, and eating delicious pub food! And, of course, scoping out some night aesthetic (™️ Hoffman Happy Travels)!
