Creator's Key Takeaways
I'm just back from my 100th Cruise aboard Regent 70s Navigator
the enormous amount of upsell or as it's known in many places nickel and diming and I think that's really disappointing
one of the most dramatic changes for the better is that cruising is no longer mostly catering for older couples
dining has also improved massively when I first started cruising I only had an option of either going to the main dining room at a fixed time early or late sitting or to the buffet
