As we set sail on the Explorer of the Seas, we will see the famous RCI Promenade back in action with more playtime and more time to enjoy the Bliss experience. This will be the second time our spring cruisers will get to experience the Royal Promenade. The Promenade is designed to emulate an upscale European street scene, lined with shops, bars, and a 24-hour cafe (a great venue to snack and people watch). Featuring atmospheric lighting which changes color throughout the day and night, quirky art features and sculptures, the area is also a hive of activity. The Promenade will host a variety of Bliss Cruise Meet & Greets, Bliss Cruise evening themed dance parties, Royal Caribbean Random Acts of Entertainment, and more. It's a great place to gather, hang out and connect with all of your fun-loving friends.

Every passenger must accept the terms of the Acceptable Behavior Policy before boarding the ship. If you did not accepted the terms during your booking process, then the Acceptable Behavior Policy Form must be completed and emailed to reservations@blisscruise.com.
It is always recommended that you arrive the night before the cruise to ensure that you do not miss the boat. For those of you that wish to follow our recommendation, we will make arrangements at a nearby hotel for a group rate to stay the night before the cruise. We’ll be hosting a pre-cruise Meet & Greet Reception to give everyone the opportunity to start getting to know the others that you will be sailing the open waters with.

Cabin Type
Do you prefer a cabin with or without a window? Cabins without a window are normally located on the inside corridor of the ship. There are also balcony rooms and suites. Balcony rooms come with an outside patio area where the scenery can be enjoyed without leaving quarters. Suites include a sleeping and dining area with additional amenities. ** If someone in your party is prone to sea sickness, choose a cabin that is in a lower level and in the middle of the ship.
Cabin Size
Having comfortable surroundings is important when going on a week-long cruise. Will you be spending a lot of time in the cabin? Do you want to wake up and drink coffee on the balcony? A small cabin with no window isn't a good fit for passengers that are claustrophobic. Make sure to determine your needs ahead of time and book a cabin size accordingly.
Amenities
Cabins and suites offer a wide range of amenities from Concierge services, to menu upgrades and spa access, to wet bars and butlers in the suite class. Determine which perks will make your vacation complete before finalizing a cabin.
Into the Deep Blue - No need for crazy costumes on your first night. Keep it simple and dress in your favorite shade of blue while you party the night away sailing on the deep blue ocean.

Glow Night - It's time to glow! Light up the night during this poolside party with your best neon and glow outfits. "If it glows, it goes..."
Lord of the Jungle (Tarzan & Jane Theme) - "Me Tarzan, You Jane" Swinging from the vines won't be the only swinging you do tonight. Loincloths and old-world safari hunter attire will set the stage for this wild night of aping around.
Fetish Night / Saints & Sinners - Fetish night provides the perfect opportunity to get your kink on, indulge in your fantasies and explore your fetishes (whatever they might be). If fetish isn't quite your thing, then opt for our Saints & Sinners theme. Dress in angel wings or devil horns.
T-Shirts (Best / Funny) - All things must come to an end. On our last night, let's keep things comfortable and best of all…funny. Wear your most clever and funny lifestyle t-shirt as we make the best of our final night together.
