Creator's Key Takeaways
As a veteran cruiser, I know all too well how easy it is to spend a lot more money when you are planning your cruise as well as when you're on board.
I never cruise without travel insurance. This is not as much for the cancellation component of the travel insurance as it is the medical.
You can avoid a lot of these additional charges on the private islands by just enjoying the complimentary beach day that these private islands offer.
