That is wrong. That is bait and switch and should never be done.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Just Don.

  1. If you can't find a lounger by the pool on a cruise ship, explore other areas of the ship where loungers may be available.

  2. Consider the overall entertainment options on a cruise ship before letting a lack of a pool lounger ruin your vacation.

  3. Consider the ship's safety measures after an outbreak before deciding to book.

  4. Evaluate personal health risks, especially if immune-compromised or elderly.

  5. Block users who make derogatory comments.

  6. Monitor what your children post on social media.

  7. If you tell someone they are in the wrong line, let it go after one or two statements.

  8. Do not physically touch or tap another passenger's shoulder to make a point.
