Creator's Key Takeaways

if you're someone who cruises a lot it's kind of easy to get into a relatively set routine on board

the most important factor is that you have a great time and you create those special memories with your friends and or family

arriving the same day is not worth the stress as one flight delay at the morning on embarkation can cause you to miss your entire cruise

the best time to experience the ship's onboard activities is in Port when the majority of passengers are off the ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book an extended pre or post cruise stay to avoid travel stress
βœ“Try onboard activities on port days when lines are shorter
βœ“Skip the buffet for lunch on embarkation day and go for dinner instead
βœ“Book a shore excursion that pushes you outside of your comfort zone
