Creator's Key Takeaways

We said goodbye to our 6-night cruise friends—only to be kicked off Freedom of the Seas with just hours before our next sailing!

They made us get off and take this little ride.

This was disorganized and shoride lied to us.

The bang bang shrimp was hot as in piping hot temperature-wise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use express exit by taking the front elevator to avoid crowded lines.
Ask your state room attendant for diamond level toiletries if you forget something.
