Opt for assigned eating time. This will eliminate having to wait in lines and you will have the same table every night.

We missed several things we had wanted to attend. There was so much to do on board. I will tell our friends to fly in the day before and get a good night's sleep at a nearby hotel. Our first day was a blur since we had been traveling from Florida since 0600 . Would start out rested.

If the season is a bit colder you can hang out in the back of the ship and it acts as a wind break. Just bring multi layer clothing.

8 pm dining allowed us to have our own wait staff, as we did not have to share them with any other table.

Eat your dinners in the main dining room. More upscale choices. If you use My Time dining make reservations ahead of time, while still at home if possible.

Outstanding service, good food, OVER PRICED specialty restaurants. Internet was SLOW. The internet was 100% better on Freedom of the Seas. If you going to charge HIGH prices for internet access - give us a good connection!

Enjoyed breakfast in the dinning room. Asked to be seated with a group which was a good way to meet new people. Be sure to check out the miniature golf.

Take time to have breakfast in the room. Did it on a morning in SF, and it was great, taking our time and enjoying the view.

Be aware that the distance to elevators can be very long if you book cabins at either end of the ship.

Book as late as possible through Royal Caribbean directly if you want to avoid paying more for the same cruise and to avoid being ripped off. Use on shore internet cafes to avoid the slow $20/day ship's internet.
