Creator's Key Takeaways

one thing I try not to think about as I'm settling into bed in my cabin is the sheer number of people who've slept in it before me

cruise lines are using C to make us slowly but surely spend more to cruise and so increase their profits

cruise lines are rapidly increasing the percentage of more costly cabins on newer ships to grow revenue and profits

I once went to a cruise line host a dinner and sat next to a ship architect and he said from a design perspective he felt sweets should be on Lower de and midship

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be aware that cruise lines are increasing the percentage of balcony and suite cabins to charge more
Consider that cabins are designed for low maintenance and easy cleaning due to high turnover
Note that many cabins now have third and fourth guest options, which can affect crowding
