Creator's Key Takeaways

If you're not drinking six to eight drinks a day, that drink package probably won't be worth it.

Cruise ships run on a strict schedule, and if you're late, they will leave without you.

Never sit on cruise ship railings. If you fall overboard, there's no guarantee you'll be found.

Cruise ships have tons of activities, shows, and food. So, don't spend the whole trip in your room.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Only buy the drink package if you plan to drink six to eight drinks daily.
โœ“Arrive at the ship on time to avoid being left behind.
โœ“Never sit on railings due to fall risks.
โœ“Explore the ship's activities instead of staying in your cabin.
