Creator's Key Takeaways
I'm not going to lie, I was nervous. We were getting off Wonder of the Seas and trying to catch another cruise ship, the Sky Princess, the same day in a completely different city.
Bright Line might just change the way you plan your next cruise. With fast, comfortable train service between Orlando and South Florida, you can fly into whichever airport is best for you.
We actually booked our Bright Line tickets months in advance using their app. Prices can fluctuate day-to-day, so we kept checking and noticed that premium was just a few dollars more than the regular smart fair.
Loved it. It was great. Super efficient way to leave. No trouble.
