Creator's Key Takeaways

the omicron surge was happening i wasn't sure are we even ago just two days ago when all this news came out about omicrons whether it's gonna go or be canceled or just very confusing

i had some problems in the beginning of my trip well i'm on terminal hold with princess with the medallion app and my embarkation time it says i'm in a green lane and i'll be automatically assigned

the green lane meant you can come any time you want and check in because that meant you've already checked in everything you're ready to go

i walked in went to the right gave my i had to take another security phone sounds good on the app you take a security photo so they pull it up but for whatever reason i had to take another photo
