Creator's Key Takeaways

I think the cruise Community blows out of proportion how lucrative Black Friday is

I always say book as early as you can repic up till your final payment date

I'm on Celebrity Apex my very first Celebrity Cruise it's a beautiful ship

Harbor Beach is really nice and a lot less crowded than the other beaches

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book as early as you can, up until your final payment date, instead of waiting for Black Friday deals.
✓Read the travel insurance policy carefully; Royal Caribbean's insurance may not be the most comprehensive.
✓When your ship is docked overnight, consider taking the water ferry to Hamilton for dinner.
✓Visit Harbor Beach at CoCoCay as it is less crowded than other beaches.
✓Consider your budget and comfort when deciding if a cabin upgrade is worth it for a short cruise.
