Creator's Key Takeaways
Depending on who you ask, this thing is either a floating paradise packed with incredible features and endless things to do or a chaotic, overcrowded nightmare.
The biggest complaint about this ship online by far is that it's just way too big, way too crowded.
The stuff on Royal Caribbean, especially their new ships, is really out of this world.
The media, I think, have this thing against cruise ships. We're constantly seeing floating petri dish at sea.
