We didn't spend that much time in the music venues. The balcony was a nice addition to our cabin. It was nice to be able to sit out there and we didn't find the view restricted. The food in the main dining room and the speciality covered a wide range of cuisines. It was nice that the executive chef came out to speak to us. The wide range of entertainment was also very good.

Royal Caribbean strives to accommodate various dietary requirements for their guests. They offer a range of dining options to cater to different dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and other specific dietary restrictions. When making a reservation or prior to your cruise, it's recommended to inform Royal Caribbean of your dietary requirements so they can make the necessary arrangements and provide you with suitable meal options. Their main dining rooms, specialty restaurants, and buffet areas often have options that cater to different dietary preferences.
Generally, Royal Caribbean guests have a luggage allowance comprising checked and carry-on bags. Checked bags usually have a weight limit of around 50 pounds or 23 kilograms each, with varying allowed quantities. Carry-on bags can include personal items, medications, and valuables, and are typically brought to staterooms. Special items like pushchairs and medical equipment might be allowed. Baggage policies can change, so it's advisable to refer to Royal Caribbean's official website.
Royal Caribbean features a versatile "Wear What You Want" approach for most of its cruises. While formal wear is optional, smart-casual attire is common for evenings. The cruise line encourages self-expression in attire while ensuring respectful dressing in public areas.
Iglu Cruise has a team in place to provide necessary assistance to make your holiday run smoothly. If anyone in your party requires medical or mobility assistance, notify your Cruise Specialist at the time of booking or as soon as possible if circumstances change after booking. The Special Assistance Team will email a form 6-8 weeks before departure, which must be completed and returned.

All passengers (including all children), should hold their own full 10-year (5 years for children) British Citizen (GBR) passport. The passport should be valid for at least 6 months past your expected return date to the UK, as this is often a criteria for entry to certain countries.

Willis Island - Cruising
Willis Island is a tiny, isolated, and dry Australian coral islet located 280 miles east of Cairns. It is best known for hosting a continually manned meteorological station in the Coral Sea. It is not a tourist attraction, but rather a picturesque cruising stop with thousands of seabirds and lush coral reefs. The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) station has been operational since 1921 and is critical for cyclone monitoring. Visitors do not land on the island. Instead, cruise ships do a slow picturesque sail-by, providing views of the station and birdlife from the deck, frequently with live narration.
