Creator's Key Takeaways

We are not going to sit here and complain that it took six hours. It's fine. We're on board. Everybody's healthy.

We still had a very nice time tonight. Even though it was a crappy day, we all did get $25 each onboard credit.

We had a great time. And then Sarah made us go up to the buffet and get pizza.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a shuttle to and from Port Canaveral if needed.
Be prepared for potential delays during embarkation.
Make reservations early, as some may be affected by ship operations.
