    You made the right decision. Money is better spent on a new ship after the squawks have been worked out. Inaugural cruises are exciting but few videos show that the experience lives up the hype due to break-in problems in both private and public areas.

      Thanks, John! Totally agree, you hear from a lot of folks after the inaugural cruises about what was good and what wasn't great, and then everyone afterwards learns about those hiccups and then it makes them have an even better experience. I am doing the same for Star of the Seas (not going on the inaugural, for many reasons) but will go on it down the road. I think I've come to the realization that I don't need to be one of the firsts to go on a brand new ship, as long as I go on the ship at some point in time, whenever in the future :) Now if the cruise line invites me for content purposes, I would be open to going of course but those invitations aren't always guaranteed :)

    I was looking forward to your content..you are very detailed..maybe Royal will send you an invite. My family and I just got back from an Alaskan Cruise on Quantum with Royal.. We had a fantastic time. The weather was perfect. Thank you for keeping us informed. 😊

      Thank you for the kind words and support AJ! I hope to bring you Utopia content after I go on it one day 😊 I’m so happy you had a great time to Alaska on Quantum! It’s a beautiful region on a beautiful ship!

    I completely agree with you. Icon inaugural was amazing. As expensive as it was, it was a new ship class. We’re going on Utopia in early August and the rate was a lot less than the first couple of sailings in July.

      Hey Kat! Appreciate you watching and so cool to hear about you going in August! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts 😊

    Wise decision! Glad you didn’t succumb to the fear of missing out. There are some sailings with better prices now; hope you can find one you like. And if you’re interested in the President’s Cruise, they already announced it for Sept 22, 2025 in the Utopia of the Seas!
    Keep having fun and thanks for sharing great content!

      Thank you for the kind words and support! I’ll definitely be checking out some sailings for later this year or next year with the family 😊 I heard about the President’s cruise! Thanks again for following along!

    I will be going in mid January so hopefully all will be functioning! My friend Angela will go on her with her son because I have a wedding in Syracuse NY so I can’t afford both. She goes labor Day weekend. You made a good decision!

      Thank you for your support, Katie! Mid-January will be here before you know it! Utopia will be ready to welcome you and I’m sure by then everything will be running smoothly!

    Not planning on going on the inaugural but, I do plan to go when the price comes down and when all shows are up and running.

    • @CruisingWithJT
      @CruisingWithJT  15 дней назад

      That sounds like a great plan, Tony! We will be learning a ton about Utopia after the first few sailings and that is going to enable everyone who goes later to have that much better of an experience. Thanks for watching!

    I almost did not book Utopia because it was also more than I paid for an ocean view balcony on icon. I guess I booked at the right time because of the sales going on but I was able to get a b2b ocean view balcony on Utopia for under 3k. I would wait to book though and hopefully the prices will be better.

    • @CruisingWithJT
      @CruisingWithJT  15 дней назад

      Nice! Glad to hear you got a great deal on Utopia for the Oceanview balcony and I know you'll have an amazing time. I'll likely go sometime next year or the year after. Thanks for watching!

      Very true. Summer can be expensive, not to mention July in the Caribbean is unbearable, so hot and humid! I'd only go if I was invited by Royal Caribbean lol.

      Totally cool, Lauren! I am happy to save over $5000 (including airfare and hotel) and will go some other time with my fam :) As much as I love cruising solo, nothing beats cruising with my wife and daughter.
