Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm actually glad I didn't do it on Sky Princess. Uh partly because there was lots of activities, but also the Wi-Fi was a little bit unpredictable.

I thought there was many things they weren't great at and food was one of them that I thought they were very poor at but actually Princess brought in Rudy Sodom who is the man uh who had worked with Horn America to improve their food and I think there was a big improvement in food on Princess across the board.

I did miss a lounge with a Ford or even an after you no proper prominard deck. So one of the big issues on the royal class of ships.

The Wi-Fi was very okay. Um, now, of course, where you get Wi-Fi is of course hinges on where you're cruising because it depends on the satellite feed, but um the Wi-Fi was not great.
