Creator's Key Takeaways

It's been a fun absolutely amazing cruise. So many things are happening that I thought I would never it would never happen.

This will be my first time ever seeing a helicopter land on a cruise ship. It'll be interesting to see how they land on the Ruby Princess.

Well, this will be interesting. This will be my first time ever seeing a helicopter land on a cruise ship.

So, yeah, it's a formal night. Everybody's dressed up nice and uh getting pictures, jewelry out, half off or whatever it is.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Close the balcony door before opening the room door to avoid wind tunnel effects.
Consider booking a balcony on the back of the ship for a bigger deck at the same price.
Use the buffet hack to make your own sandwiches with meat, cheese, and toppings.
