If you’re trying to figure out if this cruise is actually worth it… here’s the answer without the runaround. What’s worth it, what’s a waste of money, and what cruise lines don’t tell you before you book. We’re Kat and Matt from K&M Getaways. We cruise a lot, and we break it down the way people actually talk about it after the trip—not the polished version. No fluff. No brochure talk. No pretending every ship is amazing. If you don’t want to waste time, money, or your vacation… start here

What Creators Are Saying
Selected quotes from our creator panel.
“This trip wasn't about what we were doing. It was about who I was doing it with.”
“I mean, hands down it's probably the best thermal spa that I've been on on the sea. Nothing even comes close.”
“It has some blue cheese, bacon, beautiful ball of cream fresh in the center and it explodes with flavor.”
“This is what I want for my family. Memories that matter. Stories with heart. A legacy my kids can look back in on.”
“Wait, when that chef did that heartbeat in the fried rice thing, the entire table reacted like they were witnessing world-class entertainment.”
“My bank says the charges were never released. And Princess says they're not the bank. Cool. Love that.”
“And I couldn't even get my knife through the tender one.”
“There is nothing like going through the pool deck and seeing 300 chairs with 12 people in them and but everyone is taken.”
“We tried to use GigSky on our most recent NCL Lunar Cruise and we never got it working. Not once.”
“I really don't like doing that. Anybody who's eaten with me knows I am willing to do whatever they put out in front, but that Wellington was just inedible.”
Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Kat and Matt.
Don't try to document everything; take the picture and then put the phone away to live in the moment.
Always book a balcony if you can.
Fly into Fort Lauderdale instead of Miami to save money and avoid traffic when heading to the Port of Miami.
Always get travel insurance to cover medical expenses and potential evacuations.
Use packing tape over the ink in luggage tag sleeves to prevent the ink from bleeding onto the plastic.
Do not use AI for your channel.
Don't let anybody tell you how to do your channel; do your own thing.
Do your research and be prepared if you want to become a creator.
