Creator's Key Takeaways

We're about to board Carnival Forz.

The roasted potatoes, that's some of the best roasted potatoes I've ever had on a cruise ship.

The sailway is supposed to be exciting. So, you know, I get it. They don't want it to go crazy and they got to do some things, but yeah.

It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the priority line if you are platinum to avoid long waits.
