Is the Key Right for Me?


Considerations:


  • Pre-Sale Only: The Key must be purchased before your sailing.
  • All Guests Requirement: Every guest age 6 or older assigned to the same stateroom must purchase The Key.
  • Cost: Prices generally range from $20 to $45 per person per day.
  • Entire Cruise: The Key must be purchased for the entire duration of the cruise.
  • Availability: The Key might not be offered on all cruises.


When The Key Might Not Be Beneficial:


  • Suite Guests (Sky Class and Star Class): If you are staying in a Sky Class or Star Class suite, many of the perks offered by The Key are already included. Suite guests typically enjoy priority boarding, dedicated seating at shows, priority departure, and access to exclusive areas, making The Key redundant.
  • Cost vs. Benefit: Consider whether the additional cost of The Key provides enough value for your specific needs. If you don't plan to utilize the priority boarding, expedited activities, or high-speed internet, it may not be worth the investment.


Is the Key right for you?


The Key offers a range of exclusive benefits that can enhance your cruising experience, especially if you value convenience and time-saving perks. 


However, if you are already booked in a Sky Class or Star Class suite, many of these benefits are included, making The Key less necessary. 


Evaluate your priorities and the amenities you value most to determine if The Key is a worthwhile addition to your cruise.
