Creator's Key Takeaways

everyone should get a drink package drink packages are very popular but the basis for purchasing any drink package is to pay a fixed price for an unlimited amount of drinks

everyone should get a balcony room balcony serums are significantly larger than interior staterooms only offer a private spot to enjoy the ocean breeze

not to take young children on a cruise whether they're still toddlers or that old advice of they're not old enough to appreciate it

you can ask us services to remove gratuities yes this is true but the reason to remove gratuity is not to lessen the amount of money you have to pay out

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Consider the cost and what's included before buying a drink package
โœ“Balcony rooms aren't always the best choice for everyone; consider cost vs. time spent in room
โœ“Cruises are great family vacations with young children; take advantage of children's programming
โœ“Arrive at least a day before your cruise departs; book a hotel near the embarkation port
โœ“Pay gratuities; they are part of the current cruise model and support hardworking crew
โœ“Skip onboard shopping seminars; research ports online before your cruise
