Creator's Key Takeaways

What we found was that actually when we were on the cruise, there was so much that we learned that we wish we had known before actually going on our very first Royal Caribbean cruise.

When you actually get onto the cruise and you start sailing, everything is way more expensive and it becomes more unreasonable. Our biggest advice is to book everything as soon as you can before you cruise.

The difference between a sea day and a port day can really impact your experience. And this is when you want to be planning things around sea days and port days.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check in online as soon as it opens to secure an early port arrival time.
โœ“Print luggage tags before arriving at the port terminal to avoid crowds.
โœ“Book drinks packages, specialty dining, and excursions early to take advantage of discounts.
โœ“Book theater reservations and dinner slots as early as possible via the app.
โœ“Arrive at the AquaDome theater 45 minutes early to secure good seats for shows.
โœ“Bring a sweater or shawl for indoor areas where the AC is very strong.
