Creator's Key Takeaways
We went on a cruise and came back really sick. We both got the flu. Flu A.
The 11-day cruise. We felt great. We were super excited.
The coffee was dynamite. It was great.
I would not choose another cruise vacation. Mostly it's just because the things that a lot of the things you go there for are just in my town.

Post-cruise chaos hit us hard after our unforgettable 11-day Alaska adventure at sea! In this video, we share what we learned from our time aboard the Ruby Princess and the unexpected challenges we faced after disembarking. From stunning glacier views and exciting excursions in Juneau, Sitka, and Ketchikan to trivia wins, silent discos, and delicious specialty dining, the cruise offered incredible experiences—but the aftermath was a wake-up call. We recount the highs, like exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Alaska, enjoying the best coffee from our balcony, and indulging in a floating Vegas-style vibe, to the lows of battling flu A and an unexpected health scare post-cruise. Whether it's the food, the entertainment, or the insider tips (like finding the best glacier-spotting spots), we’ve got the full breakdown to help you decide if cruising is for you. Plus, we share lessons on preparing for a cruise, staying healthy, and making the most of your trip. If you’re a travel enthusiast or cruise curious, this honest review will give you all the details you need.
