Creator's Key Takeaways

we're starting here in Bournemouth why well that's all coming up

the whole process I would say took about 45 minutes because it's a big ship 5,200 people

the position what oh we are 9522 and it's a really good position it's close to the shops and the entertainment

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take a travel sickness pill for the Bay of Biscay
Choose a cabin on a lower deck for stability
Book entertainment and meals in advance
