Creator's Key Takeaways

I actually get a fair amount of pre cruise I don't know if I would go as far as saying anxiety but I definitely do get anxious

I'm really afraid of getting sick on or before a cruise to the point where we kind of obsess about it in our family

having a balcony cabin is really really super helpful we can't always afford it but we do have a balcony cabin

the cruise line is going to do everything they can to keep you safe and the worst thing that's probably gonna happen to you is that you may be redirected to other ports

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Arrive at the port about two hours before sail away to control anxiety
โœ“Request a private table in the dining room if you are an introvert
โœ“Have multiple backup plans for travel days
โœ“Fly or drive into the port the day before to avoid rushing
โœ“Use essential oils for anxiety relief
