Creator's Key Takeaways

A couple from Studio City were going on their 25th wedding anniversary cruise on Celebrity Cruises where they had booked a suite.

They lost everything. We're talking 25 maybe. Yeah, about 25K that just went because they didn't get the travel protection because they didn't get the pre-night.

If they are being rude, if they're being challenging, if they're being blah blah blah, if they're treating you badly or goodbye, see you.

The online travel agency put us on hold forever and did not provide any help.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check passport validity for clients, especially for cruise travel.
โœ“Always recommend travel protection for cruise bookings.
โœ“Charge service fees to clients who change their minds frequently.
โœ“Book directly with airlines to avoid OTA confirmation issues.
โœ“Know the geography and details of destinations you book.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Passport validity for cruises โ€” Check passport expiration; many countries require 9 years 6 months validity.
Travel protection vs. insurance โ€” Explain difference: travel insurance covers delays/cancellations; protection is supplier-specific.
