If this is your first try for the RCL fleet... DON'T judge RCL by this class of ship!! Explore the entire ship, and find the out of the way places to enjoy the ocean breeze on sea days

Go with an open mind and understand that this will not be like a pre-covid cruise. They are cruising at capacity with a reduced staff and supply chain issues. Some variety will be missing in food, liquor and entertainment.

Try to go on a cruise that is not super crowded as the one we booked was very crowded which made engaging in some activities or just finding a free lounge chair challenging.

Returning to cruising is still in progress, the staff is still short handed, so pack your patience and compassion

Very relaxing. Not for those who like continuous wildness and activities. There were a lot of activities but the very upscale and controlled.

People will reserve pool chairs with towels by 7am. Be prepared to either not have a seat where you want to be, or ask a RC worker to clear some seats for you since reserving seats is frowned upon yet people still do it.

The ship was well taken care of, clean, and everyone was very helpful throughout the entire cruise!

The ship is dated, you may get a better experience on a newer ship. It seem they drastically cut their entertainment budget. I believe you can get a better value on MSC.

Windjammer can get filled up quickly, especially during breakfast and lunch. Best to go during non peak times.

Have fun and enjoy - remember everything may not be perfect but it is better than being in the office or at home.
