Keep the Bow channel on so as not to miss and messages from the Captain and Cruise Director. Although messages are broadcast throughout the ship, it was our experience that people did not stop talking. Making it impossible to hear the message.

Be sure to know your needs and express them clearly to whomever you are booking with!

The Grand Dutch Cafe is not to be missed, and keep your eye out for hidden rubber duckies!

Do shore excursions on your own

Be sure to find your way to the 12th deck cafe and game room.

Go to guest services and ask for the form that will prevent automatic gratuity charges for every little thing! It's $16 every time you buy an ice cream cone or anything, and these charges are not mandatory - can remove them, just ask guest services. Also, bring cash if you want to tip SPECIFIC people. Unlike Disney and Carnival, they don't let you pick individual people to tip, at the end of your cruise, using the credit card you have on file with them.

Be sure to visit the Grand Dutch Cafe for incredible pastries and coffee

8102 is a nice room but you will hear the workers rolling items above throughout the night.

If you have anytime dining and you want want to eat at the same time or different times make reservations, also book early for specialty dining.

I wouldn't bother to book a specialty restaurant since the food is so good in the main dining room.

Early boarding times run late

The live band at BBKings was amazing.

Know that it is an older crowd and don't expect a party ship. It's great for a relaxing, low-key vacation.

If you want to eat at one of the specialty restaurants, book your reservations early. Consider a starboard side balconly.

Dress in nice clothes when in the main restaurants. Jeans, shorts, sweatshirts, etc are not appropriate.

Don't bring teenagers. They will be miserable. Also, be VERY AWARE that the Pacific in February is often VERY rough. Get your Dramamine before you leave!! 15 foot waves on the 5 -day journey is not for inexperienced sailors!
