You left off the priority DEbarkation where you skip the potentially long lines leaving the ship. Show up at a designated Key location at a certain window of time and they escort you to the exit, and your baggage is waiting in a specific Key area usually very close to the exit of the terminal. Great explanation of The Key. For me the kicker is the internet, but if you don’t plan on using the internet at all, then skip The Key.

I am still on the fence with this one. Thank you for the explanation and breakdown of those benefits. Great work!

We check the cruise planner often. For the 3 cruises we bought it for we only paid $1 a day more than the internet alone. The cruises ranged form 9 to 13 days. Being able to have a seated lunch on embarkation with our first adult beverage of the cruise is more than worth the extra cost.

I have mobility issues and for my upcoming cruise, one benefit sold us on the Key: priority tender port. Everyone knows that Santorini is a nightmare to go up to the old city. Our game plan: be the first bunch to go to beat most of the crowd to the cable car.

Great video! I enjoyed the Key on my last Royal cruise have it for my next. It’s worth every penny.

[maryhills]

Thanks for sharing this information. You helped me to make up my mind today on whether or not I should get it.

Hi :) Debbie from Tasmania Australia, ive just subscribed to your channel ❤ last night I decided to purchase the key for us on our march cruise on quantum of the seas ❤ I was just wondering. It says in the benifits that it includes voom internet for 1 device. There are 3 of us that we got the package for. Does that mean 1 device each?? Or do the 3 of us have to share that 1 device and log in and out of the internet each time any of us want to use it?? Great video ❤

Do you still get priority access, “skip the long lines” on embarkation if you do’t show up early; after lunch?

[mjmarinajessselincorner]

Im planning to do this for the icon of the seas

[rick_brindle]

Is there any benefit to the Key if you Book a suite? It seems most of that (besides Voom) comes with a suite Sky level or above.

[janerodriguez]

I got the key for an upcoming cruise. Are you saying I do not have to make reservations for the shows? Just show up at the designated seating area for Key members?

[debbietummel]

I heard The priority seating was in a really bad area and it was better just to come early and get a better seat

[laurasantina]

Did they do away with the complimentary room service with The Key?

[summerwinecooler]

Actually dining package does NOT get you guaranteed seating at certain restaurants. But if you pay ALA CARTE you 100% will get seating since you're paying IN FULL.

[MimiJ-kute]

On the Mega ship Icon of the seas there's no Question got to get it!!! :) got mind

[chacri]

I want to get the key, but I can’t since one of my roommate doesn’t want to get it….its all or nothing.

[ThompsonsTakeOn]

Do they tack on the 18 percent gratuity to the key?

[RexRacer]

Other videos say that during boarding, no one at R.C. checks if you actually do have the key. Can someone sneak through without the key?
