Creator's Key Takeaways

we have done a back-to-back Cruise four times in the last 2 years with the most recent one on Utopia

I would rather go to Coco K any day of the week than go to some of the ports that we've already been to a dozen times

the backto back was one of the exceptions to those reasons you see we get the best of both worlds

we end up getting two free days of internet and two free photos per person versus one for a 7day sailing

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book early and work with a travel agent to get the same cabin for both cruises
βœ“Buy internet for just one leg of the cruise to save money
βœ“Consider buying an unlimited specialty dining package for one leg of the cruise

Health issues in far away countries β€” Feel safer being closer to the US and returning to a US port mid-vacation
Getting sick on the cruise β€” Travel insurance should cover cancelling the second leg; better than being quarantined

Is a back to back cruise better then one longer sailing? Are consecutive cruises a good idea or something to avoid? With the newest ship, Utopia of The Seas, dedicated to 3 & 4 day sailings, you might be wondering, is it better to go on two short B2B cruises or choose one 7-day cruise? And what about side-to-side cruise when you go on 2 different ships back to back? We have done a back to back cruise 4 times in the last 2 years, with the most recent one on Utopia. There are a number of videos that explain how back to back process works for B2B cruisers, so I won't cover that here. Instead, I want to go over 12 surprising things we discovered that make a HUGE difference between taking 2 shorter cruises when compared to one longer 7 day sailing. And three of these things were different on Utopia than all other back to back cruises we took. Don't book a B2B or side-to-side cruise before watching this video! πŸ‘‰ A lot more content coming.
