Creator's Key Takeaways

The Jade has been my most problematic ship to date. It's definitely been not my favorite ship

I would highly recommend that you check it out

I will say the cruise next people tell you not to wait till the last day to go sign up for your cruise next and I definitely did and now I regret that

It was the people I met, the crew, the staff, and my fellow cruisers that really made this one special

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't wait until the last day to visit the Cruise Next desk
Speak up immediately if you are having a bad dining experience
Try the wine tasting for a great value and education
Check out La Cucina for breakfast to avoid buffet crowds
