Creator's Key Takeaways

It is cruise day, October 20th, 2025. I'm going on Norwegian Joy, not the icon of the seas.

I'm in the first couple groups because I'm Sapphire and um my picture wasn't so I got pulled out of line again.

Everybody's complaining and pissed off. It is what it is. It's a mandatory inspection. What are you going to do?

Tanyaki, always great. Always a great time. Our uh chef was amazing.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pay attention to where you book your room to avoid noise from bars or entertainment areas.
Be patient during embarkation delays, as mandatory inspections can occur.
Use the drop-off point for luggage if you have back issues or heavy bags.
