Creator's Key Takeaways

I will say I maybe I mentioned this in, you know, one of the other videos that MSE would be my just go-to cruise line if I was just going to take a little quick cruise just because of the price point and what you get for it.

There really is no reason to choose anybody else at that price point because what you get for that is still is still far above anything that any other cruise line would offer you.

MSE is your starter cruise line and um just go move up from there, you know, all the way from just MSE to Royal Caribbean to Norwegian.
