Creator's Key Takeaways

the mistake i think that cruise lines make is they offer a bonus to this person in charge if they can go under budget

it is really difficult to eat in the mess if you have dietary restrictions

the meat in the mess is always pretty crap i was gonna say questionable but it's just rubbish

protein powder is the way forward with that one because i mean you'll see you'll see when you get on board

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Let medical staff know about dietary restrictions when you join
βœ“Get friendly with mess staff to understand what food contains
