Take advantage of the adult solarium! It is such a great space and it's HUGE! Because it's enclosed, you can be in the pool or hot tub regardless of weather and be comfortable!

Be prepared for lots of walking to and from venues

Sail her at low capacity if you can! Cafe @ 270 is an excellent alternative to avoid the Windjammer queues at breakfast.

Eat before 9pm otherwise you will starve

Book your dining time for the MDR quick. Get the first embarkation time slot - need to be on board to book entertainment and free activities.

If you are traveling with kids, be aware that there’s very little to keep them occupied. The pool was closed and my three-year-old was too young for the bumper cars.

It is HUGE! And there’s only 2 banks of elevators, not 3 like many others, you will walk a long way going to from your room, go for a room close to the elevators if you’re not up for walking a bunch. It’s also a very tall ship, you should take the stairs as much as you can, but, there’s only so many times you’ll want to walk up 5-6, 10 flights of stairs. (16 decks total) The elevator lobby’s are well sound insulated and you can’t hear other guests or elevator dings from your room, go for close to elevators.

Get a map in your mind of how to get to your room. Put decorations on your door to help you and family find it. Be prepared to spend a week after the trip in isolation with Covid. Over half of our group got it.

I don’t have any good advice, honestly. Best of luck to anyone else sailing this ship, cruise line, and/or itinerary.

Eat at Hotdog place on deck 15, it was very good!

If you like good food and great “big” entertainment at night stay away. But it’s sailing in Alaska. Hard to complain too much.

order room service.

Don’t expect the type of entertainment you would have on other ship.

If possible, get additional information regarding main entertainment as well as what times the activities are open.

Have a good time

Wear a mask. Husband caught Covid at the end of our cruise.

I would opt for port side, on deck 6, and further aft. This hallway has access to the upper level of the two70 lounge
