Creator's Key Takeaways

Icon of the Seas to Galveastston, the worstkept secret in Royal Caribbean in a long time.

Legend of the Seas is going back to Europe. And the reason why I say this is a big deal, I could be wrong, but I don't believe Royal Caribbean has ever sent an Oasis or an Icon class ship for that matter to Europe unless it coincided with an amplification.

Royal Caribbean really has honed in on this is what most of our people want most.

Baltimore will only be a a summer cruise season. There will be no more winter cruises there.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Be concise when filling out post-cruise surveys to maximize character space.
βœ“For first-time cruisers, pre-book excursions and add-ons, and sample as much as possible on board.
βœ“For 20-year-olds on a cruise, focus on port excursions and dining packages to enhance the experience.
