Creator's Key Takeaways

The fact that we are drawn to cruising and I wonder if in the back of our mind, especially with maiden voyages, and we can't let an episode of the show go by without me talking about having done four Kunard maiden voyages.

It's very poignant. It's very sad. It's very moving. And yet it draws us to cruising, you know, and I think that is such an interesting juxiposition.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Do a westbound transatlantic crossing on Queen Mary 2 instead of a repositioning cruise.
βœ“Choose a midship cabin for the cheapest fare on a transatlantic crossing.

Discomfort on flat-bottomed cruise ships during transatlantic crossings. β€” Choose Queen Mary 2 for a proper ocean liner experience.
