What to know before you book
Cabin tips
For short sailings, a balcony cabin is a nice upgrade but not essential since you will spend most of your time out exploring. If you are traveling with a group looking to party, book mid-ship on Decks 8 or 9 for easy access to everything.
Dining
Royal Caribbean counts 21 dining venues, covering everything from the complimentary Main Dining Room and Windjammer buffet to specialty spots like Giovanni's Italian, Izumi sushi (with a new omakase experience), and the theatrical Royal Railway.
Entertainment
Utopia leans hard into the party atmosphere with six dance floors, multiple DJ sets nightly, and a lineup of four production shows. It also has Studio B for ice shows and laser tag.
