Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm happy to report that things are a lot better so far on Ruby

Ruby Princess seems slightly nicer than Caribbean Princess

It was nice to see that they didn't remove the casino bar

I would definitely not recommend booking a cabin on Riviera deck

✓Avoid booking a cabin on Riviera deck due to noise issues
✓Be prepared for unpredictable weather in Alaska even in summer
