Creator's Key Takeaways

I've taken over 70 cruises and I've been on a few occasions kind of Seasick

cruise ships are much bigger than you think it's one thing to see a video here or a photo of a ship but when you see them in person you realize just how massive these ships are

a cruise vacation remains one of the best values in travel when compared to taking a land vacation

statistically cruising is a very safe vacation no one falls off a cruise ship unless they're doing something they're not supposed to

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Ask your doctor for a patch that goes behind your ear for seasickness prevention
✓Contact Royal Caribbean prior to your cruise to request a private table for traditional dining
✓Choose my time dining to eat in the main dining room on your schedule with just your group

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Fear of getting seasick — Prevent with medication or patches; chances are low on modern ships
Feeling trapped or claustrophobic on board — Ships are massive with many public spaces and ports to visit
Cruises are too expensive — There are options for every budget; cruises include hotel, food, and transportation
Will be bored on a cruise — Ships offer myriad activities and entertainment; more to do than can fit in one sailing
