Creator's Key Takeaways

They finally gave us information about the Discovery class and confirmed it. Except we really don't know much more than we did before this.

Michael Bailey said that many of the assumptions that are currently out there in social media in terms of size, capacity, etc. probably it's fair to say inaccurate.

I still think it's going to be 4,000 passengers. I just have a there's no way, mark my words, in 2029, there is no way they're building a cruise ship smaller than 4,000 passengers at double occupancy.

Everybody needs to get insurance. It's worth it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get travel insurance when traveling internationally on Royal Caribbean.
Consider booking flights through the airline directly for easier changes.
For StarClass, use unlimited laundry daily and take advantage of specialty dining.
