FAQ
Q: Is this cruise good for kids?
A: Very — Camp Discovery serves ages 4-17 with full-day supervision in summer. Some activities require advance booking through the MedallionClass app.
Q: Is a balcony cabin worth it on this route?
A: On the California coast, yes. Morning coffee watching the Pacific sunrise, whale spotting during sea days, and the dramatic coastline views make the upgrade from inside to balcony highly worthwhile — one of the few routes where balcony genuinely changes the experience.
Q: What are the gratuities?
A: Auto-charged at approximately $16.50/person/night (inside/ocean view) or $19/person/night (mini-suite and above).
