Creator's Key Takeaways

But none more so than Royal Caribbean. They have the largest ships at sea.

So really it's kind of a mixed bag all around. It doesn't seem to indicate that bigger is better there.

If you just want a quieter vacation and want to be able to go watch a lounge singer and have a nice quiet dinner, you'll be perfectly content on the smaller ships on the fleet.

So if you don't think you need all that stuff, I would stick to the smaller ship. You're going to save some money and you're going to avoid crowds.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book entertainment in advance on larger ships to secure seats.
Choose smaller ships for a quieter, more relaxed vacation experience.
