Creator's Key Takeaways

I want to make sure that I get on the cruise ship and have a nice seat at the Leo deck and just kind of relax

priority checkin we had the 10:30 a.m. window so we left the hotel in Orlando we got uh to Port Canaveral by about 1010

priority check in got us into our waiting area and then we we were on the boat by about 11 11:05 a.m.

if you're going to do faster fun 6:45 is not the time to leave on the Marty gr the celebration the Jubilee
