Creator's Key Takeaways

Pro number one is the ultimate unplug. So, of course, when you're on a transatlantic cruise, you're going to be having so many sea days.

Pro tip number three is luxury for less. So here's the tea. Transatlantic cruises you can usually find for a steal.

Con number one is the obvious. Sea days galore. So, transatlantic cruises can have um five to seven days at sea with no ports.

Con number two, weather wobbles. So the Atlantic Ocean can be a bit moody, especially in the spring and fall.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Plan ahead for potential seasickness by packing Dramamine, ginger, green apples, and booking a cabin in the center of the ship.
โœ“Consider a transatlantic cruise as a hack to beat jet lag due to the slow time changes on the ship.

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

too many sea days โ€” Flip the switch mentally into relaxation mode and take advantage of onboard activities.
seasickness from ocean waves โ€” Pack medication, use ginger or green apples, and book a center cabin to minimize rocking.
