Thank you. We went ahead and booked an 8 day Caribbean on the Allure after the dry dock! Very excited 🙂

All suggestions welcomed. Planning first time cruise for family: 3 adult children & partners, kids 9 and 14 and grands. Allure of the Seas Jan 2026, we have choice of connecting balconies on deck 10 connecting balcony rooms 10550 & 10552). or Deck 7 non connecting 7588. CONCERNS: forward cabins and seasickness, or is that n/a on a big ship deck 10? vs Deck 7 over/under the restaurant. Seems the connecting rooms are the best for the family.....thoughts and TIA!

Never cruisers here, planning a 2026 Caribbean trip, balconys so we can 'unpeople' if needed 🙂 I know most people complain before they praise, but getting nervous about the griping surrounding crowds, meals etc on the RC Oasis size ships. 1/2 the group will love all the big ship activities, the other 1/2 may be overwhelmed. I'm hoping our 1st cruise will lead to many more, vs a 1 and done. Besides Disney, if an Oasis class seems too big, can you recommend another line/ship that would provide lots of entertainment especially for the kids/teens as well as good food/drinks and activities for the adults? And why? TIA!!
