Creator's Key Takeaways

I don't think there's any way to ever get bored on a ship unless you're just sitting in the corner staring at a wall get up and do something

I have sailed on smaller ships and I have sailed on some of the biggest ships and you know what one time in uh 12 cruises that I've been on I think I've gotten a little queasy one day

I've only dressed up for that once and that was 15 years ago on one of my very first cruises maybe I got to work on that but don't worry about the dress code

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get a passport even for closed-loop sailings for emergencies
Book a 7-day cruise for $2,000 or less by planning strategically

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Cruising is too expensiveCompare daily costs to land vacations; you can pay less than $150 a day on a cruise with entertainment included
Getting seasickUse Dramamine, patches, or ear dots; ships are stabilized and seasickness is rare and short-lived
Dress codes are strictMost ships have relaxed dress codes; formal nights are limited to specific restaurants
