    I went down the rabbit hole of watching cruise videos and recently found your channel. I want to go on one so bad. So looking into it now. We are a 3.5 hour drive to the NJ port so that is convenient. Anyway just wanted to say I love the channel and you two are awesome. Keep up the great work.

    I didnt realize how awesome sea days were until I experienced one. I also absolutely adore formal night. I never get a chance to dress up.

  • @ScottTaylorRealtor
    @ScottTaylorRealtor ปีที่แล้ว +19

    I hate formal nights, especially while cruising in the Caribbean. I dress up at work and on vacation I want to relax and dress comfortably. I prefer the MDR to Windjammer for dinner so I’m glad RCI has a more relaxed dress code for formal nights.

    Walking on my first cruise ever (Carnival Fantasy)to my stateroom, the cleaning staff greeted my wife and I by our names. I thought it was crazy! They dedicate some time to getting to know their guests and it really shows. Look forward to booking Royal soon.

    Thanks for explaining the rules of shuffle board to us! We have played on our cruises in the past but just made up our own rules hah
    Donnie, Kerry, and Brian’s mom would form a super team of Friends trivia surely to come in first place! Our jaws hit the floor when we saw the price of the Pokémon cards! 🫣
    Always appreciate Brian’s cruise facts!

    Dinner time question: Hey Brian and Kerry! I've been binge watching your vlogs, so thank you for the brilliant content. I've never gone on a cruise ship before and am a bit anxious about how it feels. How does it physically feel to be on a cruise ship? Do you constantly feel the feeling of the ship moving? Is it something you get used to after a while? What is the difference between the feeling you get on rough seas vs. smoother sailing? Thank you!!

    • @Views-And-Queues
      @Views-And-Queues  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This is a really good question! We’ll add it to our list to answer at dinner! Yes you can almost constantly feel it, but you get used to it! After the first day you can forget you’re on a ship! When the seas are super calm you sometimes can think you’re docked because you can’t feel it at all. If you’re anxious about it, look into a Freedom Class or Allure of the Seas for a 3 night sailing. Most of those sailings are in port every day during the day, so you will only feel the movement at night. Also get some bonine or dramamine and you will be good! And to answer the last part, on rough seas days, you notice it all day, and think about it a lot. But those days don’t happen too often and most of the time you get used to it and forget about it!

When you're on a Royal Caribbean cruise you keep mentioning that you buy the Soda package for the cruise, my question is do you get just the Soda package or is it the Refreshment package that you get?
