Creator's Key Takeaways

I was stuck at sea for a day while I waited for the Port of Tampa to reopen to allow the cruise ship that I was on to return

there are some people that were downright upset downright stressed out downright frustrated

the first key takeaway is I don't think that people properly anticipate what could happen on a cruise vacation

when you travel you're the one assuming the risk the cruise line will not be responsible Soup To Nuts for everything that happens on a trip

Creator's Tips & Advice

Have travel insurance or be self-insured with money for a rainy day
Keep access to funds for extra hotel or flight if disruptions occur
Anticipate potential issues when cruising during hurricane season
