Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for GO WITH JO.

  1. Use the discount code from the information box to get free Wi-Fi on your cruise.

  2. Download the GigSky app at home and load your plan before traveling.

  3. Activate the eSIM when you arrive at your destination, not before.

  4. Book premium early to secure a seat.

  5. If economy is booked, consider buying premium on the plane for Β£150 if seats are available.

  6. Consider paying extra for champagne at the Great Musical Afternoon Tea if you want it, but it's not necessary.

  7. Try the crispy duck and watermelon salad at Kora La, as it's the creator's favorite starter.

  8. Avoid the seafood thermidor at Piccadilly's, as it was disappointing.
