Creator's Key Takeaways

I love cruising. I love everything about it. But there are some things that I don't enjoy about the cruise experience.

Why do we have check-in times if they mean nothing? Is this whose line is it anyway where the points don't matter?

Chair hogs. Again, why why do we have rules?

People vaping everywhere. Everyone knows my thoughts on vaping. One, stop it. It's smoking.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Wash your hands at the buffet and do not touch the food with your hands.
Follow check-in times and arrive at the terminal 15-20 minutes before your scheduled time.
Be respectful to fellow cruisers and staff, and wait for people to exit elevators before boarding.
