Creator's Key Takeaways
We've taken 8 cruises in 2 years, and we're breaking down the everyday cruise ship mistakes that cause stress, frustration, and FOMO instead of fun.
Don't immediately think that the outside room is going to gain you so much more of a amazing experience of cruising. Really ask yourself, is it worth the extra cost for what you're getting?
We got delayed for six hours, missed the flight, came in the next day. Well, we had a two-day buffer, fortunately. Otherwise, we would have missed that cruise.
Do the math. Most people get on a ship and maybe the first day, maybe the first two days you're going to have a really good time... But then you get into those longer days and you kind of are going, 'Okay, well you're going to have a drink here, a drink there.' Just do the math and make sure that you're actually making out ahead.
