Creator's Key Takeaways

We are humbled and overwhelmed at the same time by the amount of people who wanted to join us on our first ever group cruise.

A year of planning has made this all come together and we're so happy to have all of you guys with us.

It's a big one. We've got about 320ish people on it.

We always said we will never do a group cruise. That is not our thing. We're doing a group cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If you are a solo traveler in a raffle for two, make friends quickly to have a partner.
βœ“Don't try to schedule too many activities on embarkation day; let people settle in.
βœ“Use Telegram or similar apps to coordinate with large groups in the evenings.

Overwhelming logistics of a large group event β€” Keep the initial meet and greet informal (float in/float out) and schedule structured events for later in the cruise.
