Creator's Key Takeaways

We are here to have some fun on Corn with bump cars. Check this out. How cool is this? You get to do bump cars while you're at sea.

I was still able to do a Teams meeting back uh with video. The video was a bit patchy. Switched to voice and it was fine and dandy.

Starlink has actually made working from sea a lot more viable. So, if you're getting onto cruise ships now, one of the things you definitely want to be checking is, is it a Starlink enabled cruise ship?

We would much rather be able to have, you know, regular type holidays and still be able to communicate with our workplaces.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check with the cruise line about Wi-Fi package details, as some offer 24-hour blocks or calendar day blocks.
✓Consider bundling internet with other packages (e.g., Royal Caribbean's 'The Key') for better value.
✓Use a single device package and log out when not needed to save money.
✓Pre-download content and files for offline use to reduce strain on ship Wi-Fi.
