Creator's Key Takeaways

I just think it's a great way to travel and see the world and the more that I cruise the more tips and tricks I've been learning to help save time and money

my first tip is to fly in at least two days before your cruise is set to depart the airports right now are a complete mess okay they're probably the worst that I've ever seen them

tip number two is to join the Facebook group for your sailing I know some of you are rolling your eyes right now and thinking no no social media and no Facebook but it's really worth it honestly

tip number four is all about that drink package I see a lot of questions about this and I'm not gonna outright saying no do not buy that drink package no no no don't do it I'm not gonna say that

βœ“Do a ship tour on embarkation day to get your bearings, especially on mega ships
