Applies to all ships
SLOW DOWN. Don't be the first, at anything. You do not see more or get a discount for being the first person at your shore excursion rendezvous point.
Plan better, plan smarter. Take some time and pay attention to the HUB app. If you see something typically has an hour wait (Restaurant), plan accordingly from then forward. Don't book when you're hungry, book before you get hungry.
You don't have to get off the ship in every port. Stay on board and take advantage of the empty place.
