Creator's Key Takeaways

I don't want to open a door to see a hallway. That that's to me that's not a vacation.

Balcony is a vibe purchase. It is not a logical purchase.

You don't cruise to sit in your room, period. Whether that's an interior or balcony.

I'll spend the 800 bucks, thousand bucks. But so a question for the group out there is would you skip a balcony on a newer ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use interior rooms to save money for excursions, drink packages, or more frequent cruises.
Check in on the cruise app as early as possible on embarkation day to secure better windows.
