Creator's Key Takeaways

I did a quick search on a Louis bag and it was a certain price I went to an authorized dealer went outside checked it on my Google it was $1,000 less found it in 5 minutes of research

I've learned so much off a Cruise Critic been on there for almost 20 years and there is just a wealth of knowledge even with a lot of the ports that we've been to some of them in the Caribbean 10 12 times I still research them just to see if I can pick up something new

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Do a little research before making big-ticket purchases on the ship.
βœ“Make reservations in the main dining room every night via the app to save time.
βœ“Use a good packing list to avoid last-minute purchases and time wasters.
βœ“Tell spa staff 'no upsells' before your treatment to avoid high-pressure sales.

Missing the ship during port visits β€” Ship excursions are usually short; you can take a cab and return well before all-aboard time.
