Creator's Key Takeaways

We love Faster to the Fun. It's something that we do all the time because we are not yet platinum on Carnival

Yes, you absolutely can, Cherylyn. In fact, my son has been doing that on this cruise. He just orders whatever mocktail he wants.

Instead, go to the back of the ship because when the ship makes a 180° turn to depart, you will have a front row seat with the same view.

I am actually wearing my seasickness wristbands, aka my Wonder Woman bands today because I've been getting a little bit woozy in the morning

Creator's Tips & Advice

Buy Faster to the Fun for $69 per cabin to avoid lines and get priority services
Go to the back of the ship for glacier viewing to get an unencumbered view
Use packing cubes to organize clothes and separate outfits for pre- or post-cruise stays
