Creator's Key Takeaways
Viking Cruises just got a perfect 99 from the CDC, but one ship totally bombed.
I did the deep dive into all these CDC filings so you don't have to.
Trust me, spending your cruise vacation feeling sick in your cabin instead of exploring ports or hitting the casino is the worst.
Pro tip that I always follow, check the CDC Vessel Sanitation Program site for your specific ship's latest score before booking.
