Creator's Key Takeaways
I prefer booking an interior cabin most of the time to save money.
I struggled to drink enough throughout the cruise to break even, and I often felt pressured to keep ordering drinks just to justify the cost.
I almost always book specialty dining while cruising, and I highly recommend others do the same.
I steer clear of the onboard spa, casino, and shop, so I'm not tempted to spend any money.
