Creator's Key Takeaways

I would say probably not for most people no know uh there's too many risks involved

I am a single traveler I usually Cruise solo and I have no one else with me so I'm responsible for me and me alone

I live in a major North American city that has three airports in the city and between those three airports I think there's a hub for all of the major U.S airlines

I also never take a connecting flight if my flight is not non-stop there's no way I would fly same day for my cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

Fly on a non-stop flight if you choose to fly the same day
Take the earliest flight of the day to allow for backup options
Be flexible and willing to change plans if weather or other issues arise
