Creator's Key Takeaways

the idea of a private balcony on a cruise is exciting you pay a little bit more and you get a million dollar view that you cannot get anywhere else

one tip is to keep in mind that your balcony actually isn't all that private the dividers between the balconies are a low to allow wind to pass through

one tip that no one else really tells you is that when you eat in a restaurant on the ship you can often think of the menu merely as a suggestion

you should know that in general cruising it's pretty safe when it comes to being a victim of crime or your health even so you have a right to be informed

Creator's Tips & Advice

Keep your balcony private by being aware of low dividers and reflective glass.
Pack warm clothing for rainstorms and cold evenings at sea.
Ask for menu items not listed or order multiple dishes in the main dining room.
Use a shoe organizer to keep small items organized in your cabin.
Check your onboard account regularly for errant charges via the cruise line app.
