Creator's Key Takeaways

we definitely recommend booking early what we mean by booking early is to plan ahead

we've done the guaranteed State room thing a couple times and each time we've been pretty satisfied with the room that we've gotten

we've done the Royal up program six times and we have only been accepted once

Black Friday is typically when you'll see the lowest prices available for the drink packages excursions and all that sort of thing

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book early to take advantage of dynamic pricing and use price match policy
βœ“Use guaranteed stateroom options to save money, but be aware of potential room location risks
βœ“Participate in Royal Up upgrade program to potentially get a higher category for less
βœ“Wait for Black Friday sale for lowest prices on packages and excursions
βœ“Use the Next Cruise program while onboard for discounts and easier rebooking

Risk of getting a bad room location with guaranteed staterooms β€” Be aware that you might get a room with a blocked view, but if you're not picky, it can save money
Uncertainty of winning a Royal Up bid β€” Bid in the middle range to increase chances, but be happy with your original category as a backup
