Creator's Key Takeaways

one client was in an inside cabin midship and I booked them specifically there because they are very prone to seasickness

they got upgraded to a balcony at the front of a ship in rough seas and that person spent the seven-day cruise almost entirely in the washroom sick

if you're in a handicap accessible cabin never ever ever say you want an upgrade if one becomes available because they don't check to see if it's an accessible cabin

if you need to be in a certain area you want to be close to an elevator because you have a hard time walking you want to be away from noise

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Think long and hard before accepting a complimentary cabin upgrade
βœ“If you need a specific cabin location or accessibility, say no to the upgrade
βœ“Tell your travel agent to say no to the upgrade as well
