Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas is on her way right now to Cadiz Spain to begin her dry dock her refurbishment

Royal Caribbean announced those rules are now gone they may come back who knows I mean no knows what the future holds anyway right

I love what Royal Caribbean did last week when they announced the extended and expanded cruise with confidence these new programs really make take a lot of the risk for the consumer out of it

Lift and shift basically I'm going to use um who's that example Ralph's examples with Ralph has a cruise booked in July Alaska I'm gonna assume Ralph you're on ovation of the seats for easy consideration

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book excursions in Costa Maya as there's not much to do there otherwise
✓Use the lift and shift program to move cruises to next year while protecting the price
✓Fill out the special needs form before your cruise if you use a CPAP machine
✓Book drink packages before the cruise and rebook if the price goes down
✓Consider solo rooms or off-season bookings for better solo cruise rates
