Make sure you get up early and reserve your chairs by the pool, even though it's a very large ship, the out door pool Area is not that big and pool chairs are limited. That was my biggest problem finding a pool chair in the sun. Just so you know, you need to get your pool chair before 8am.
The biggest tip I can give is not to take this cruise! Although we cruised with Royal Caribbean one other time and had a wonderful experience, this cruise really swayed our opinion in a negative manner on the brand. We will be sticking with Disney and Norwegian from now on!
Definitely book your dinning and shows in advanced, I tried to book it the first day on the ship but that was too late, some shows were all reserved so we missed out, and the only fine dining time slots left were after 8pm. Try to use a credit card instead of cash avoid long check out lines.
If you are on a 7 or 9 day cruise then go with the flow.
What i found most try to do is : Handful of cruisers do as much as they can on the 1st 2 days at Sea and they end up burning them selves out in the last 2 days of the trip from our conversations with others.
Its a vacation not a sprint to do as much as you can- then before you know it, you need another vacation on top of the prior vacation.
No Big tips here. I can only speak thru our experience and we had a very good time. Perhaps it was the time of the year we went. Near the end of August and we expected to see more kids but not as much as we thought since most colleges are in full swing and kids are about to go back to school ?
Don't! Too many people. Every activity, including shows that you had reservations for, were mobbed ; had to line up like cattle, at the doors at least an hour before showtime.
