Creator's Key Takeaways

If you're doing a backtoback, book early and get the same room for both for both cruises.

The turnaround process for when I did it on Carnival was simple.

Same room is clutch. I'm telling if if you don't pick up anything else from this whole conversation, same room is clutch.

The drink package doesn't roll over. The internet doesn't roll over. Those are separate packages.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book early and get the same cabin for both cruises to avoid moving bags.
✓Use the sink to wash underwear and t-shirts to save on laundry costs.
✓Print luggage tags for the second cruise and attach them to your bag to avoid mistakes.
✓Use up all onboard credit on the first cruise as it does not transfer.
✓Do something different on the second leg to keep the experience fresh.
