Creator's Key Takeaways

this is the first time I'm on board one of these ships so there's a lot to see a lot to explore a lot to learn about these ships

today on the other hand was a very intricate test the most thorough test that I've seen on any of my sailings up to this point

it was a very interesting drill and ultimately when it was over it didn't even stop there they then announced over the PA system that they were going to remotely close all the water type doors from the bridge

the jewel does not handle it in one of the better ways I've seen on the quantum where they just serve the same menu as lunch

Creator's Tips & Advice

Stay on board during port days to explore the ship when it's less crowded
Monitor sea conditions using ocean maps before sailing
Be prepared for customs processing when arriving in US ports
