Be prepared for a work out! The ship is huge and a lot to explore. Where comfortable shoes and plan your time wisely to be able to experience the entire ship.

A great multi-generational experience, but be prepared to be bumped into and pushed aside by unruly, undisciplined children & adults (only 20% of the guests but enough to mention)

Spend a lot of time walking around and figuring out the layout of the ship when you first get on. It is big but very easy to learn.

This ship is designed for families. Lots of kids, about 40% of total passengers. Adult pool and associated space is way too small to accommodate but a small fraction of adult couples trying to find space.

Definitely book the shows in advance. I was able to book the shows about two weeks prior to the sail date, and then plan my dinner time around that. There is so much to do, so maybe talk to your travel companions to see what is a must do or must see for each and plan for those things. It’s a lot of ship and my 7 days barely scratched the surface, but we all did our top 3, and everyone had a great time.

When sailing have a plan but allow it to be fluid, flexible. Don't be afraid to try something new from food, activities or simply having a conversation with a fellow cruiser. Pack your magnets. They also have hooks on the walls as wall. Shoe hanger for organizing and storage. I don't care what those videos post. There wad less storage/ closet space in our cabin.

Take time to relax at the aquadome. They have a area where you can sit and watch the front of the boat sailing on the sea! So relaxing!

No Rising Tide bar, no glass elevators but we loved the new system!!!!!! The Pearl is kind of just there.
