The silent disco is hysterical especially when both songs were being sung at the same time

Your experience is why I always take my mums advice and pack a full outfit and swimwear in my hand luggage. Never had a case go walk about so far but if it happens I'm ready!!!

Re the room photo on your upgrade bid. I've never done that but I will say when looking on certain travel agent web sites I've noticed photos are often totally wrong corresponding to cabins, also ship interiors are often incorrect. So is useful to use several sources to confirm cabins for example. Have to say I've never been on royal Caribbean but that ship looked packed and very noisy. Not sure it's right for me the more I look at it. Very informative and interesting video, like your style of filming, is very honest. 👍

RCI going like disney. Always went on RCI but last Trip, same as you guys went on, possibly about a week before you went on, we felt they where trying to ripp us off at any piont, to the fact they tried to charge gratuities to our 3 year old 😕. Guests services everyday had a Q a mile long.

Ship looks much busier than the last time you were on it which is probably why they are more strict about dinning rooms. The silent Disco looked fun. I assume you didn’t get drinks package on this trip as far too sober. We went 2 days after you and the Red Arrows supposed to do a fly past but the weather was terrible so they couldn’t do it - why didn’t you vlog them?

Is that woman with the black on at around 20 minutes in walking past is that lady called Jo I swear I know her ur then stood with her again literally just found u guys first video I watched u guys r brilliant x

Like I say just come off broad today really big competition going in today kids running round all over the ship rude staff wrong room my two daughters sleeping in a Show for bed 19 16 not the best but I could have payed for a bigger room

That’s shocking what Royal Caribbean did to you!! You should report them to Trading Standards. Completely misleading people to get them to pay more money for the same room.
