Creator's Key Takeaways

This cruise ship is so big. It has seven full neighborhoods with 5,700 passengers and 2400 crew. It's absolutely huge.

We're almost diamond plus, guys, which is very exciting. We've done a lot of Royal Caribbean cruises now, so that's pretty cool.

The food is amazing on there. It kind of replaces the Prominard Cafe that you'll find on the other Royal Caribbean ships.

If you want a more traditional cruise, you want it to be quieter, less kids, more relaxing, this one's definitely a miss.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book shows and dining in advance via the cruise planner as they sell out quickly.
Use the Royal Caribbean app to bookmark activities and stay organized.
Consider the drink packages if you plan to consume many beverages.
For budget travelers, many activities are included in the cruise price.
