6.19 Just Disembarked! Royal Caribbean Spectrum of the Seas Family Travel Guide

This week, our family embarked on a long-awaited cruise vacation—a week of "disappearing" to fulfill our two sons' graduation trip plans! 👨👩👦👦 We started planning this journey six months ago, hoping it would become one of the brightest memories of their childhood ✨ To remind them that amidst the vast ocean, we have our own "utopia" 🛳️💙 🎢 Who is it suitable for? If you're planning a family trip centered around kids, this is highly recommended! There are plenty of activities for children aged 6 and above, including surfing on the deck, bumper cars, rock climbing walls, and the kids' club—every day is packed with fun! Our elder son, who is 6 years old and 130cm tall, was already brave and confident enough to ride the North Star observation capsule on his own 💪 The cruise also offers free childcare services, where bilingual teachers engage kids in games and crafts, allowing parents to enjoy some relaxing time ☀️ 🎫 Ticket & Itinerary Information ✔️ Tickets: Snagged a great deal during last year's Double 11 sale on the Royal Caribbean mini-program ✔️ Itinerary: Shanghai - Fukuoka - Shanghai, 5 days and 4 nights classic route ✔️ Price reference: Four-person ocean view room total ¥11,190 ✔️ Gratuities: $18.5/person/day × 4 people × 4 nights = $296 ✔️ Additional activity costs: • North Star $45 • Deck skydiving $50/person ×2 • Bumper car priority access $5 • Full cruise Wi-Fi $100 📲 Tips & Tricks ☑️ Beverage package: Buy just one and share among everyone ☑️ Wi-Fi: Purchase one package and share it via mobile hotspot ☑️ Hot water: Hot water is available onboard; bring a thermos for convenience ☑️ Boarding reminder: Avoid bringing too many bottled waters due to luggage restrictions 🌞 Daily Little Joys After the kids head to the kids' club, my favorite moment is relaxing on the deck with a face mask and soaking up the sun 💆♀️ With great weather and warm sea breezes, every day feels like living in a seaside resort ☀️ As for clothing—I brought several camisoles but ended up not wearing them 🤣 Reality: Glasses, nightgown, and no makeup while wandering the buffet, but comfort is key! This trip was not only a graduation gift for the kids but also a rare opportunity for our family to bond and unwind. Highly recommend cruises as the first overseas trip with kids—stress-free and full of variety! 🌊💙
