Creator's Key Takeaways

internet onboard cruise ships is very costly because it's costly for the cruise lines to be able to offer internet access on board because they need a satellite

the coffee that is an offer in the mess is absolute dog but the coffee on here that is offered in the mess is exactly the same as you can buy in grounds Club

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Use internet cafes in port instead of ship Wi-Fi to save money.

✓Be mindful of alcohol consumption at the crew bar as it adds up quickly.

✓Check if your ship provides free water stations to avoid buying plastic bottles.

✓Try to use the passenger gym during quiet times if you don't have guest privileges.
