Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm a recovering uh disney fan um i'm i've completed a 12-step program but i still have to you know make my penance and and apologize to at least 50 more people

the food is always what i love about cruising um you know i love the ports i love the ships there's always things but at the end of the day i i think i definitely base every day as where we're eating is my thing

i don't recommend it i think you're overpaying for perks and amenities that generally just sound better than they are

Creator's Tips & Advice

Purchase cruise planner items early and rebook if price drops
For first-time Royal Caribbean cruisers, choose an Oasis or Quantum class ship
At CocoCay, try the crispy chicken sandwich at the snack shack
