Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm really excited for this week's podcast episode because at the end of this week i'm taking my next royal creeping cruise vacation on the beautiful jewel decease

we wanted something different we had done a lot of eastern and western caribbean cruises and those are great we've done them a lot we really enjoy them in fact but we wanted something different this time

the centrum is an eight-deck high atrium and if you've been on say freedom class or oasis class and maybe even someday quantum class you'll know that the royal promenade is really the center of activity

we're going to fly in the night before you're going to fly in the morning before so we'll have a good 24 hours or so in san juan

Creator's Tips & Advice

Fly to your cruise port the day before to avoid missing the cruise due to delays.
Book excursions on your own for flexibility and potential cost savings.
Consider hump cabins on radiance class ships for larger balconies at the same price.
