Happy Sunday and Happy Thanksgiving weekend! I hope you enjoyed a wonderful holiday with family and friends! There is a lot of Royal Caribbean news to share this week.<\/p>\n
In less than a month, Royal Beach Club Paradise Island opens and it’s almost ready<\/a>!<\/p>\n New photos from the cruise line show off the tremendous progress that’s been made, including the new pools, cabanas, and more.<\/p>\n While not totally complete yet, these new on-the-ground photos show off what looks to be a beautiful spot to enjoy the day.<\/p>\n Have you subscribed to the Royal Caribbean Blog YouTube Channel<\/a>? We share some great videos there regularly, all about taking a Royal Caribbean cruise! This week, we are sharing our latest video\u2014My cruise ship went to Carnival’s private port<\/a>\u2014and don\u2019t forget to subscribe here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Black Friday sales continue through this weekend, and it might the best time for a new discount<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the preview sales began weeks ago, some of the offers have gotten better with the arrival of the actual Black Friday holiday.<\/p>\n There’s more instant savings on a new cruise, as well as potentially lower prices on cruise add-ons too.<\/p>\n If you have to fly for your cruise, never make the cardinal mistake of flying the same day as your cruise begins<\/a>.<\/p>\n Putting your entire vacation at risk is not worth the hotel room and ancillary costs you might be able to skip by travelling the same day.<\/p>\n There are simply too many variables to contend with, and little wiggle room if things go sideways.<\/p>\n Real talk: saving money by moving to a cheaper cabin might be full of regret<\/a> later.<\/p>\n Saving money by getting a downgrade is an option, but often the ramifications of that choice become apparent too late, and that could lead to problems.<\/p>\n Not only is a cheaper stateroom going to cost less, but it might compromise in other areas you didn’t consider.<\/p>\n After taking a few cruises in Europe, I realized I avoided going for silly reasons<\/a>.<\/p>\n I believed some rather common assumptions about cruising in Europe, but I wish I had come to my senses earlier.<\/p>\n I think a lot of people put off a European cruise out of unsubstantiated concerns and regret it later.<\/p>\n The 585th episode<\/a> of the Royal Caribbean Blog Podcast is now available at all our links.<\/p>\n Matt interviewed architects from Wilson Butler Architects, who have helped design Royal Caribbean ships for decades.<\/p>\n Please feel free to subscribe via YouTube<\/a>, iTunes<\/a> or RSS<\/a>, and head over to rate and review the podcast on iTunes if you can!
