Creator's Key Takeaways

we're sometimes a unique bunch and so I wanted to come and talk with you all about why I think Pinnacle club members get a bad rap

we stick up for Royal Caribbean more than we should sometimes you know not everybody has an amazing experience

we also don't deal well with change so we have been in a cost cutting environment in the cruise line industry for decades

us as Pinnacle members you know if we're requesting something and they're saying it can't be done or it's not a different way we are very quick to try to correct them or train them
