Review summary
My favorite part of the cruise was my stateroom with a balcony looking over the ship to the open seas and seeing God's creation. What I think needs to be improved on Royal Caribbean is a distinction between gratuities being added to your daily sea pass account; also provide a lower price on movies and a better movie selection with better TV viewing selection in the stateroom. I would recommend to first-time cruisers to be prepared for the check-in (border security checkpoints) process and check-out process; you cannot bring everything you buy back to United States.
