Views & Queues FAQs
Where did you get that Royal Caribbean scratch off poster? We make it and sell it ourselves on Etsy! Here’s the link: viewsandqueues...
Do you two have jobs? Yes! We both have full time careers. Brian is a Software Engineer and Kerry is a Graphic Designer.
Is this vlog a paid promotion with the cruise line? No, we have never worked with a cruise line before (I doubt they even know who we are 😂). If that ever changes, we will be sure to let you know in the video.
What are those black pouches around your neck? We use the lanyards to carry some camera equipment, but many cruisers like to wear lanyards to hold their room key card.
What camera do you use? We typically use the DJI Pocket II, however, when we are in the water we use the Go Pro Hero 9, and in Alaska we occasionally used the Nikon P1000 for wildlife shots. You can find these linked in our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.)
What is a GUSS? GUSS is our name for a Towel Animal! It is a childhood memory for Brian that has lived on for years. You can see the home video moment where GUSS was born in Adventure of the Seas Day 6 (We Made the News) and Allure of the Seas Day 3 (Sea Day).
Is that one thing you said serious? Almost certainly not. If you’re new to the channel, we have really dry, sarcastic senses of humor. So if you’re questioning if it’s sarcasm - it probably is.
How do I ask a dinner time question? Leave a comment on any video and let us know it’s supposed to be answered at dinner time. We’re always looking for new questions (even if the next cruise we can answer it on is a long long way out).
Is it really pronounced CoCo “Key”? Royal Caribbean has said itself that it is pronounced “Key” in a FAQ of their own here: creative.rccl..... To each their own on this pronunciation!
When and how did you meet? We met in February of 2020 via a dating app. We answer this question in more detail in our Independence of the Seas Day 2 (Swimming with Pigs) video.
Where did you get XYZ clothing item, Kerry? I do most of my shopping on Amazon and you can find those items linked in our storefront here: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) My sunglasses are a mix of Knockarounds and Blenders. My luggage is Bric's by Ulisse. Those fun flowy pants are from Shein. Other than that, it’s usually TJ Maxx, Kohl’s, JCPenny or Old Navy.

Will Brian ever propose? He says he will, but 🤷🏻♀️
I've been following you for quite some time now, and I've grown to love you more and more, until this video. Who says such mean things about bacon! 😦 Bacon should be crispy 😄
That was super mean thing to say. I was shocked!
Lol
I’m sorry but the US have no idea about bacon. The UK with have Back Bacon, a whole different level of bacon, 5 times more meat and of course never crispy. Kerry, hope you had some when sailing out of Southampton, if not get some and take yourself to bacon heaven
The fats the best part you can keep your bacon in the uk it looks like a pork chop anyway.
Wait…. Brian’s last name is Carey?
So if you get married your name will be Kerry Carey?!?
How awesome is THAT!!
I’m just glad I’m not alone in hating crispy bacon 🥓🎉
& I love the Guss ecosystem garden! 😂
I've never set foot on a cruise ship and I had no intention to... until I found your vlogs. You two are so entertaining, thanks for taking us along the ride! Eagerly awaiting a new vlog to be posted!
I discovered your channel two weeks ago and watched the “every episode” playlist and finally caught up! It’s been a blast. I feel like you’re my cruise friends now 😄
Thanks for the wonderful videos. I can’t wait for another Disney cruise!
Thanks for watching everything!
I know everyone has different experiences w/ wifi and internet, but when I went on the Symphony of the Seas twice,e a few years ago, we had perfect internet and took zoom calls, watched netflix on our ipads, etc.
I never got to see the special suite deck before. Just as cool as I thought it would be. What a amazing adventure on Symphony of the seas!
Yeaaaaa for floppy bacon. I'm 100% with you.
I love that you guys went back to the room and changed to meet the standard of dress but there’s a guy in front of you wearing a “F*** around and find out” shirt 💀
This KILLED me 💀😂
I’m delayed on watching this but I’ve been watching cruise videos for months now because I’m going on my first cruise in July! So excited! Going on Carnival Pride!! Anyways, love your videos! I live in Virginia Beach and love the fact that you were talking about the toilet bowl water ride here! It’s called The Hurricane and Ocean Breeze Water Park! I love how that one is too where you just drop in a pool!
Kerry and Brian, you two are simply outstanding! I'm always blown away by your videos. Kerry, you have such a joyful personality that so many adore. I love how you explain everything, and your honesty is charming. Your content is truly remarkable because it is both informative and engaging. Although I have health problems that prevent me from traveling to the places you two visit, you have allowed me to experience cruise life vicariously through your videos. Thank you!
Yayyy…I’m 113th to watch….whooohooo…love you guys and thank you for sharing the ship tour. Back in my days, these tours were free😊
You’re so brave Kerry
Hi Brian and Kerry. Really enjoying your videos. The private suite deck is really impressive. Love the Guss Garden also, seems like there needs to be a space for that in every room. 😀Thanks so much for sharing your trips will all of us.
Yep! Floppy bacon is way tastier! ❤❤❤
A week from today I will be on this ship. Your videos are getting me excited. It will be my second cruise.
@Mikey28947 carnival ecstasy almost ten years ago
I am also addicted to Starbucks too!!! Glad Royal Caribbean has them!
We’re in Michigan & having horrible air quality because of the Canadian fires in Quebec 😢. Glad you’re away from the off gassing from the seaweed. Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Same here in Northern Ohio. My area was in the Hazardous air quality category the other day. So much haze and smokey odor, but better today!
Oh man the view from that balcony was awesome! Thanks for Sharing!
Omgoodneess! I booked your royal crown loft way back when your first Symphony of the Seas video came out and now it ranks #3 with you guys😂😅😢. Lol, I can't wait to lug up my luggage up to the loft. Seriously, I know it will be great and I love your videos! Keep them coming - just faster❤
haha it’s still amazing and we would totally want that room again! You will love it!
So I just went on Icon recently and stayed in a suite that’s Sky level and I swear the Suite Sun Deck is what made the trip for me! I loved how it was never hard to get a chair any time of the day and they waited on you hand and foot. It spoiled me 😂
Did you see Chris Wong in the Casino?
The Veteran appreciation ceremony has been on every RC sailing that I have been on. You should attend and honor those that have given so much for your freedom.
Yes we went in April and had that issue too! There were still remnants later in the year but not as bad as spring time! And I get Brian! I am very sensitive to Scents/fragrances
I want a Gus Garden!! I love that!! Kerry, I never noticed your beautiful green eyes ❤ when you guys are in the kitchen I really noticed them!
Out of the three cruises I've been on (All NCL), their premium internet is amazing. I was able to upload photos & videos and even stream. I wonder if it's just different on different ships. We really need to try Royal & Virgin but we get loyalty rewards with NCL so we're not sure how to try out another cruise line without it being super expensive.
I really loved our Crown Loft Suite we had back when Oasis was new. I was spoiled for all our future cruises. The suite sun deck on Oasis should have had a hot tub. And when we went up there we were the only people up there. It seemed quite pointless to be up there. Maybe they put one up there later on? I agree that the balcony is big enough in the suite but it sure would have been nice if they had a hot tub like the Royal Suite.
Hi from Sydney Australia! We have been binging all the episodes and love your banter! We haven’t cruised before but have picked up so many tips and can’t wait to start booking! Keep the great content coming!
I've watched most of your vlogs. I will finish them all. I have enjoyed watching you all. My favorite was the jeep excursion.. followed closely by Norway and Alaska. Hope you all had fun on your latest adventure. Welcome Home 🎉 from a fellow Floridian.
I did the kitchen tour on Allure in 2018, it was a memorable experience! I will never forget it and the brunch was fantastic!
You guys should do more Disney Cruises. I'd love to see you guys on the Fantasy for a 7 night!🚢
Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 Love your videos. Can I ask for your dinner question: What do you each do for work & how do you get the time off for so many cruises?
I ordered your magnets just so I can alert my cabin attendant that I love towel animals (Guss). I can’t wait to get them. I have until Oct but I have a little OCD and excitement.
I love the way you rate things
What I learned is that Kerry wants her bacon the total opposite as the woman who owns the channel I Love Cruising Royal.
Intersting. Just watched Chris wong vlog and he was talking about I95. Very interesting tour!
Bernie in Sydney
We did a galley tour like this on our cruise on the Celebrity Summit, but there wasn't a charge for it. Hundreds of people showed up for the tour.
When you guys walked into the room and it’s the monkey with the border face 😂
Watching now 🎉😊 Love you two!
I have been binge watching your videos..great content ❤❤
Hi Kerry and Brian...
Thank you so much for sharing your super fun adventures.
I luv watching you both, and I feel like I am watching a real live LOVE BOAT episode.
I just watched your Alaska cruise and then the Norway cruise. All these vids were so enchanting and the way you filmed them were sooooooooooooo super GORGEOUS.
I just subbed, and am looking forward to watching all your vids.
Have a fun evening
Surie
Who watches Comet while you are cruising?
I want to volunteer to watch Comet, she is adorable!
Love your videos!
The way that Carrie said ‘No he didn’t forget!’ Is just too funny. Some real disappointment there hahaha!
My dad used to work at the Text to city oil refinery And he retired when it marathon bought it And osha started making them wear hydrogen sulfide Monitors Which hydrogen sulfide is H2S And it is very bad for you. It is colorless gas with small af rotten eggs I'm pretty sure that if you had a h2s monitor it would be going off like crazy And the reason why you get hydrogen so fired from seaweed is from the oil that is in it
I like crispy bacon, and I love your videos too Thank You for sharing!
Dinnertime Question: hey yall heyyyy!! Im so intrigued... What does your cruise prep look like? Is there a dry erase board on the wall full of bullet points and sticky notes? Brian is so knowledgeable regarding details on each ship and yall plan THE BEST in port outings!! Love it!!
Yes haha I do not like crunchy, hard bacon! My grandma basically burns hers lol
Ocean Breeze water park! I live in Virginia Beach and we love that slide!
Try making BLTC.. C is for cucumber thinly sliced
You are going to need to add the ICON
Patiently waiting for the Disney cruise vlog! I take my silver anniversary cruise is 30 days!
We just got off the Disney Dream for a 7 night med cruise on silver anniversary. Everything was sold out for the anniversary. We had a blast.
Odyssey’s suite sun deck also has a locked gate.
Haven't even started the video yet but ahhh can't wait to watch!! Yall are truly my favorite youtube channel
The burger is Still on the menu at Jamie’s Italian on Ovation (at least as of two weeks ago)
wow i’m really glad to hear that! thanks for telling us! we feared the worst
On Icon of the seas they substituted the Ultimate Abyss to a Bungy Jump. Just be careful if you plan to do it. If you end up in the water RC will not pick you up. Its in the fine print of the waiver.
You guys should make a reusable sign to sell with your magnets or separately that says something along the lines of “please save my towel animals”.
Love your videos. Have you sailed on Wonder? Thought it was crossed off in map but didnt find any videos. Also Ovation to Alaska but it doesn't have the ice show right? Thanks for all the entertainment ❤
i had to be in a 4 hour online class, and my internet on carnival was just fine. 🤷🏻♀
Crispy bacon is the only way.
"i'm waiting for someone to fall" Carrie!!!
Hydrogen sulfide gas when added to moisture, like in eyeballs or moist membranes, turns into sulfuric acid and causes a burning sensation. Albeit a weak concentrarion of sulfuric acid. Either way, not a pleasant experience.
I’m trying out the smaller class ships till December Gonna Be On Serenade of the seas in September doing 19 days on a back to back and then 16 Days back to back on Vision of the seas 🧐 hopefully it’s not much of a difference from oasis or quantum 😅
Thanks for the video. Dinner time question: do you prefer a Disney cruise where there would be fewer options but almost all is included, or RC where there are more options but less is included?
I'm torn between going on this, Harmony or Oasis. Lol
Amazing place.
I absolutely love your bathing suit can you please tell me where you bought it at please 💜💜💜
Thanks so much, it’s an Amazon suit! You can see it and all the other bathing suits I got from there in our storefront: www.amazon.com/shop/viewsandqueues/list/19WK8NJREOACD?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsflist_aipsfviewsandqueues_WQHH8VKAVCEWGVCS3A1P&language=en_US

H there, I have a dinner question for you. What would be the longest cruise you would do and where?
hi i am a fan and i am going to symphony of the seas in the same room as u 1738 crowned loft suite in august and i have a dinner question what do you fo got a living and thank you for the help because you helped me learn the perks of the room
Loved the vlog, as always! 😍 So, how did Symphony measure up against the other Royal ships you’ve been on? We sailed on her in 2019 and had a wonderful time!
On the Disney wish
Dinner time question :
How do you find your cruise deals :)
Hi from PA! I love your content 🛳️
Dinner question: Did you ever miss getting back to the ship on time at port or do you have a funny story about cutting it close?
Ok guys, it’s been a month since you’ve given us a video. It’s time for a new one please! 😉
today at noon!
Would you guys have any tips on how to win a free cruise in the casino?
honestly we would say just play how you normally would and hope you get an offer in the mail later. we just got an offer for a celebrity cruise and our last celebrity cruise was almost a year ago, so you never know what you could get
Kerry love the blue summer pants! Looked on your Amazon but didn’t find them. Where are they from ??
Love you guys 😂 but being crispy is what makes bacon…well bacon 😅
Clearly they need a second door upstairs of the loft suite or an elevator!
Why do y’all do the stand alone starbucks rather than the juice bar at the spa for the included starbucks drinks?
Hi Kerry and Brian! I really enjoy watching your vlogs :) I was wondering if you have any other cruise vlog channel recommendations? I've tried searching for some, but haven't found that many. I have found yours, Disney Duo Adventures, and Ordinary Adventures. Thank you!
Trev and Chels have some great vlogs! Other than those three channels we mostly just search “cruise vlog” on youtube and hope some good ones come up
Love your videos! We’ll be on Independence in March 2023. My question is, what do you do with your Gus’s?
Now is the suite deck for people staying in suites only? Because if I remember correctly it used to be diamond plus and suite rooms had access to the suite deck
Love your videos!! You guys are so silly I love it! Are you guys on ShipMate by any chance?
Dinner Question: If you could create a dream realistic cruise itinerary, how long would it be and where would it go? For instance you can’t say 14 night R/T Orlando with 2 stops at Perfect Day and then Flam and Sitka.
You can also mix RCL and DCL stops if you like
I love bacon and I think it has more flavor cooked floppy 😂
Hi Kerri and Brian, are you taking advantage of Coastal Kitchen while you are in the Sky Loft Suite? Have a great cruise!
This is our first time with royal and on Disney I’ve had the magic band the royal band doesn’t interest me how do you keep you seapass card safe when riding the slides and swimming?
Dinner time question: if you could only do one cruise itinerary for the rest of your cruises, what ports would it include?
Thanks!
Now my Dinner Question:
Is there a difference in the quality of the food and entertainment between a short Cruise and a long cruise?🎉
New subscriber and enjoy catching up with your vlogs. Question as I’m sure you’ve mentioned it sometime. Why do you call towel animals “Gus?”
So how many starbucks does Brian drink on a cruise?
Do we think...
A) 4-6
B)7-10
C) 10-14
Lol I'm curious now.
I miss you so much. When is the next cruise video.
hopefully in the next couple of days
Were your parents able to go up to the suite deck with you? We have the same situation on our cruise in Aug. We Royaled Up and got a Crown Loft but my parents are in an ocean view balcony.
What is your favourite cruise ship
Question.. which video had the hairspray musical?
Well that was a disappointing Guss. If you’re going to get the hanging monkey isn’t it standard that it at least have sunglasses on?
haha that should be the standard!
It was an orangutan though 😎
Does every other word need to be "like"😅
Hello. Just found your channel and like it. I was wondering if Kerry has Turner Syndrome. I have Turner Syndrome and she looks like she might
The seaweed thing seems really concerning for people who bring their babies or young children
Does anyone notice this guy is purposely trying to look like Charlie sheen buut when people notice him he's acts all surprised even tho he's been trying to look like him the whole time...🤔
