    Hi from Texas!! Loved watching your first day on the ship, that’s always my favorite day on the cruise getting onboard and enjoying everything that makes cruising so much Fun!!! We are totally Loyal to Royal!! Being Diamond Plus it’s hard to cruise other lines and have to pay for drinks and plus we just think Royal Caribbean is the best at sea. ⚓️

    Great review! I did the 7-day Greek Isles on explorer of the seas on June 2, 2024 and loved it! I got a room with a balcony for my parents, and an interior room for my brother and I (to save a few hundred dollars). I have to to say that upgrading for a balcony is totally worth it, the views are beautiful. The interior rooms are depressing, no natural light, you don’t know what time of day it is. I put my alarm at 7:30am everyday to make sure I did not over slept.

  • Thanks for sharing - looking forward to the rest of the series! It’s making me want to book another cruise ASAP!
  • @Gutie2021
    Yay! I’m super excited for this trip! I have binge watched all your videos in the past 2 weeks, and I am super excited for new videos! I kinda miss your little jingle at the beginning of each episode with the montage! It always got me pumped to watch your videos! I’ll be looking out for the next one!

    Looking forward to this one!We have a Greek isles/Med booked for next August! Kala cracks me up with the cold Canada comments. “It’s always cold, there is ice everywhere” 🤣 Do you live in an igloo? lol. JK. SW Ontario has been very warm to hot since early April & generally the winters are Jan to Mar. I know parts of Canada have winters from Oct to Apr though 🥶. Jokes aside, loved the first Med vlog!

    We tend to choose based on deals but lately we’ve been picking based on ships we want to sail on. We tend to end up in the Caribbean a lot because it’s the cheapest and also most of the newer ships sail from there. There are ports where we don’t even bother to get off anymore now, so I’d like to start going to some different places but it’s so costly to get there!

    Great intro video to new series - love it! (Will be back on Explorer for third time this year in November for Barcelona to Miami run… Did you get your diamond drinks / chef’s gift, robes eventually delivered to your room? Love the new dance moves 😅 As for your question on loyalty, being diamond, we love the lounge, private behind the scenes tours, benefits, drink vouchers, etc., and typically decide where we want to travel to, then build an itinerary around Royal sailings in the region. We do try to avoid school holidays, and enjoy transatlantic runs. Cheers, James

    Another Fantastic Vlog. Looking forward to the rest of the series
  • @moggiemum2
    Although its great to have a balcony, the payoff with interior cabins is that you can spend more on experiences/excursions and cruise more often. We never spend much time in the cabin anyway. Usually, we decide where we want to go and check all the cruise lines for the best deal. We are in the UK so we always have to fly out somewhere which adds to the cost so good deals are more important to us than loyalty.

    I'm excited for this series!! I will be on the ship in September. I look forward to your excursions, pre and post travel tips leaving the ship.

    Hello fellow cruisers, I live in California and I usually end up on Carnival, because they sail out of San Francisco and Long Beach. I’ve been on Norwegian once. But I do want to get on Icon of the Seas. Travel safe.
  • Just arrived home today after Greek and Croatia explorer of the seas cruise 1st time cruising. It was fantastic 👏 👌
