Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival Cruise Line has unveiled new 2027 28 deployment plans for Carnival Miracle, Carnival Paradise, and Carnival Elation.

Norwegian Cruise Line has announced a major policy change for its private island Great Strup K in the Bahamas.

Comments online are calling this a greedy money grab, with some even saying they will switch to Royal Caribbean instead.

So, would these upgrades make up for losing your drink package, or is this just more nickel and diamond?
