Have you ever been on a cruise at max capacity before? Let us know!

[papierdolls]

We've been on Harmony...going on Wonder next month and I've been binge watching videos. Most videos are filmed on port days with not as many other passengers on the ship, so it looks serene and peaceful. Thank you for posting a realistic video of the crowds on the cruise. I forget there are swarms of other passengers with lines for everything...🤣

[FLACKFAM]

This was insanely busy! Cruise elevators really are better to skip if possible! You always hope to not have a full ship when you book! Our Mediterranean cruise was at half capacity at it was amazing!

[whatifdisneyworld]

Oof a busy cruise is like a nightmare for me. Good tips of how to still have a great time and make the best of it! A cruise IS still better than work! Great video friends!

[SpeedTherapy]

Whoa…. Very busy cruise but you are 100% correct. “Your on a cruise and that’s better than being at work”. A lot of great pointers and ideas on what to do and where to go for better relaxation. The whole cruise experience looks to be so much fun. Greg having to run to bathroom… too funny as I can relate and have had to do the same before. The miniature golf footage was hilarious…. Hit the ball in and a child popped out, Lol. The ship does look beautiful at night with all the different colors. The lobster tank…. Water looks cloudy…. Probably from the people that don’t get out to pee 😂😂. You’ll are too funny!!! Loved the vlog.

Hey! we just disembarked Wonder of the Seas today too and loved watching this recap video 🙂 This was a Spring Break cruise with tons of kids onboard and we observed they were pretty well behaved. We even got a kick out of the teenagers singing and cheering on other singers in Spotlight Karaoke. We avoided the main pool decks on Sea days and practically had it all to ourselves on Cozumel port day. We chose to sit in the back of the Theater / Aqua Dome so we could slip out minutes before the shows were over to avoid the exiting audience bottleneck. Since Karaoke is our favorite activity, we always arrived early to get a seat and a spot in the rotation. Lastly, we loved the traveling piano player who showed up on elevators several nights during the cruise. When we requested a song he didn't know, he learned it by the next time we bumped into him. How cool is that!?!!

We just got off ICON & was almost at full capacity!! We never felt it was packed on any deck at 1 time, maybe the water slide, but i went to Adults only which was Not to crowded. Only time i saw the full capacity is on the Promenade for Balloon Drop..I think all ships need the Numbered Elevators that ICON has that was really fantastic!!! Never had issues except after dinner or a show!!!

[fleureenbarrera]

Thanks for making this video!! Im going on my first cruise on Spring Break 2025 on the Utopia of the Seas. Since it just launched July 2024, there are no videos on what its like at full capacity. I'm sure Utopia will be at full capacity on Spring Break 2025. Thanks for being so detailed so I can somewhat prepare myself for the crowds. We're going on a 4 night cruise and I think it'll be nonstop partying on the Utopia!! LOL 🤣

[theserenewedroots]

I just found your channel but I've been consuming cruise videos for the last month or so and looking at your channel, this is your sweet spot, cruises. This is such an incredibly informative video and you're so easy to listen to, it's wonderful. 🎉❤

[DADDIO]

We've only been to a few cruises and actually never thought about the crowds but thinking back, I think we were lucky it wasn't crowded. Noel used to get anxiety if there were too big a crowd when he was younger. He's much better now but still gets anxiety from time to time mostly if it's crowded in small spaces.
The Solarium looks Great and sounds Wonderful!!!
Mmm...I would Love Sorrento's! Crowd or no crowd!😂
Poor Greg!😅 Glad he made it to the potty! Lol
It's so Amazing how the crowds were and that it actually doesn't seem that your on a ship!😮
We Totally enjoyed your insight and experience and appreciate your tips!!!
Thanks So Much, Guys!!!
😁🤙👊

[CruisingColemans]

That does look pretty busy! We sailed on Wonder when there were still some Covid restrictions so it was relatively quiet. I’m not sure how we would feel sailing at full capacity 😬

[ABitefLife]

Hi Meg this was an excellent and realistic vlog and review! Wow I can’t believe how busy it looked lol. We took our wonder cruise first week of November specifically for a ship at less capacity and with less kids. Only thing was it’s a little risky because of storms in the Caribbean, but we were willing to take that chance and our cruise was beyond amazing! It was a little over half capacity when we sailed and it honestly STILL felt pretty busy. The main pool and solarium were packed every day except port days or in the evening. Again, excellent job! Love to see your videos doing well! You work very hard on them and it shows! Like 271

[fldhkybnva]

Thank you so much for this video. All of the other cruise tour videos show nearly empty ships so it’s really impossible to get a sense of the number of people.

[brettswartz]

Great video. I'm pretty sure we were on the same cruise. It was our first cruise in eight years that was sailing at max capacity (our two previous cruises were at about 70%).

[DisneyVacationFamily]

It just feels and looks busy and crowded... I think that would definitely get to me after a few days... and it seems so many people get sick on these cruises and are always hacking and coughing all over... especially upsetting to see some people in the buffet areas... just gets annoying... I guess I have become so much less a fan of being crammed with people since COVID... and people's behaviour tends to bug me more these days... I used to so enjoy cruising... but maybe it's just not for me anymore... :( Did Greg do a little dribble dribble in his pants? ha ha... too funny... I mean, the ship looks amazing, but gosh... the people... the lines... might just feel even more tight when there is literally no where else you can go while onboard... look at the jewelry store... holy smokes... wow! This video is getting some major traction! Great work Meg (and Greg) :) Totally agree... kindness and respect would solve most of my issues with traveling with 7000 other people... ha ha

[mylessmith]

Will be on Symphony of the seas for my spring break next week
Will be interesting to see how crowded it’ll be

[HinesEdventures]

We had 6500 on the Feb 25 wonder of the seas…didn’t feel like IT most of the time

[RipRideVlogIt]

Hi guys! Oh man couldn’t imagine getting up at 5am to get a sunbed! Good tip to check later on in the day. Black Friday out there 😂 el loco fresh was one of the only places we got stuck in a queue on symphony too. Good tip to be flexible with your time when to eat it really does help. Glad you didn’t have issues with the shows! Definitely worth booking in advance. That kid in the whale omg 😂😂 brilliant video as always even with max capacity it looks like a great ship and cruise 🤩💙

[TastesLikeDisney]

5am to save chairs! That’s crazy. We wouldn’t have done that either!😮
My wife gets nervous riding elevators, so we never do it.😂 I’ve never seen an elevator that crowded before!!
It definitely looks like it’s worth it to eat at off meal times! Great tip!😄
I know how Greg feels. I’m always the one running to the bathroom!!🤣
Love the video! So informative. Have a fantastic weekend!!!

[CruiseLife]

The ship just looks great! Hopefully in time, the crowds may well die down a little what with it being a new ship.
