Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm also one that plans their port arrival time to be early enough with minimal waiting in the port terminal time will tell how this changes in the future

i love having a connection to the sea on board a cruise ship that's why i almost always book a room with a balcony and take the time to enjoy my ship sailing in and out of port

for me cruises and vacations in general are all about sharing incredible experiences and creating memories with my loved ones

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book cruises far in advance to align with school calendars and get the best selection and pricing
Select fully refundable deposits when booking multiple cruises
Plan port arrival times early to minimize waiting in the terminal
On embarkation day, tour the ship, finalize dining plans, and try fun activities when they're least busy
Arrange for open specialty dining or main dining rooms to avoid crowded buffets for your first meal
Book a room with a balcony to enjoy the sea connection and views
