Creator's Key Takeaways

We are an affordable cruise line. So, as long as they work on it and strive to improve, we'll be happy with that because I've always said um we feel very thankful and blessed that we can do this.

It's not something you can until you're here, you can't really feel it.

Use Google Translate and Google Lens for reading menus and signs
Use the Suica card for public transportation
