Creator's Key Takeaways

The yach club is hands down the best of them all.

Butcher's Cut might just be the best steakhouse at sea.

It's not perfect, but it's one I absolutely recommend with confidence.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book drink package or Wi-Fi when you originally book your cruise for the cheapest rates.
Book entertainment as soon as you board the ship because shows sell out quickly.
Check the daily planner to not miss activities and events.
Go to the cliffhanger swings as soon as they open or on a port day to avoid waits.
Don't miss white night and bring your white outfits.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

I boarded this cruise with a lot of curiosity… and a little skepticism. Because when a cruise line with a mixed reputation launches one of the largest ships in the world, the real question isn’t how impressive it looks. The real question is whether the experience actually delivers once you live onboard for a full week. So that’s exactly what I set out to find out. ----- ⚓ Our Trusted Travel Partners: 🤝 🛳️ Ready to Book Your Next Cruise? Cruises It makes planning easy!
