With hundreds to thousands of guests onboard, even the most massive cruise ships can feel crowded from time to time. Certain venues and activities tend to be especially popular, creating potential hallway bottlenecks, scarce seating and long lines. Travelers who have braved the buffet at 9 in the morning have likely had to dodge busy foot traffic while browsing selections. “Breakfast is kind of busy the whole time, because people get up at different times,” said Alisa Myatt, a travel vlogger who runs the YouTube channel EECC Travels with her husband, Jason.
