Creator's Key Takeaways

I just booked a lastm minute 7-day cruise on Enchantment of the Seas with Royal Caribbean for me and my 11-year-old daughter, but I'm starting to have regrets.

I really swore I would never sail MSSE again. But y'all, I think I got to make the switch.

MSC has my all-time favorite cruise line, private island.

I've never been to Jamaica even though I've been to almost 30 countries, but my boyfriend cruised to Jamaica and he said is the worst port he's ever experienced.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Consider switching cruise lines if the ship lacks kid-friendly amenities.

✓Evaluate itinerary ports based on personal preferences and past experiences.
