Creator's Key Takeaways

It is amazing. It is fresh fruit. It is not the frozen kind, not the canned kind. It is fresh.

I always feel bad for the staff because they literally have maybe two hours at best to get all this in tiptop shape for all the new people coming on board.

So, this uh part of our cruise is going to be a 5day.

This is my kind of sail away. Completely relaxing.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the 'still on vacation in transit' sticker to identify yourself to staff during transition.
Consider self-assist disembarkation for a quicker process.
Visit the Grand Pacific dining room for embarkation day lunch instead of the buffet.
