Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Chris Frame the Maritime Historian.
Ensure regular detailed inspections of safety-critical seawater pipes to detect hidden corrosion.
Implement thorough safety management systems for routine examination of critical equipment.
If you're planning on a cruise in 2026 or 2027 in Brazil and you speak Portuguese, keep an eye out for Buena Vista.
Book an ocean view cabin after guest services on deck three for a 7-foot floor-to-ceiling window.
Consider older Millennium class ships for better value and classic cruising experience.
Don't pay extra for the retreat; you can get similar service in standard cabins.
