What Creators Are Saying About Zach the Traveling Man
This was such a magical bucket list type trip.
Christopher
She is not the flashiest ship on the ocean, and she is not trying to be. Instead, she offers something increasingly rare in the modern cruise world.
CruiseTalesToday
This room is really for family with kids. With kids. I don't think a six adults need to be in here.
Damion & Quanda EXP
A Carnival Cruise Line passenger from Georgia is facing charges after deputies say he struck two children aboard Carnival Glory during a cruise from Port Canaveral.
Doug Parker

Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Zach the Traveling Man.
If traveling on large Norwegian ships in Alaska, budget extra time for shuttles to get to downtown ports.
Pack for both 40° mornings and 60° afternoons and always bring a real rain jacket.
Understand that MoveUp is a revenue maximization tool, not a loyalty perk.
Track availability on the public booking site to spot the 'cascade effect' in real time.
Don't rely solely on loyalty status; it acts more as a tiebreaker than a competitive advantage.
Casino comp guests should leverage MoveUp as it provides high value relative to out-of-pocket cost.
Have a bid locked in at least a week before sailing to allow for adjustments.
If you go to Skagway, take the White Pass Railway.
