Creator's Key Takeaways

My husband is recovering from a very intense shoulder surgery. He had a full shoulder replacement surgery.

We are actually heading back on Norwegian Bliss. You might remember last year we went to Alaska with Norwegian as part of their Latitudes Rewards members cruise.

The best way to get your the best cruise rate is to go to your travel agent and let them do the shopping for you.

I love that ship. I sailed on her with Junior for the inaugural many years ago. I think it might have been 2017. And we had the time of our lives, so it's kind of close to my heart.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book excursions direct with tour operators if they have a gentle cancellation policy for missed ports.
✓Use a travel agent to find the best cruise rates instead of comparing sites yourself.
✓For flights out of Fort Lauderdale after debarking, book no earlier than noon to account for ship delays.
