Creator's Key Takeaways

have you ever seen an advertising for a cruise for under 500 a person and then you get home after it's all said and done and it costs you five thousand dollars for that cruise

we have cruised 40 times over the last dozen years and have learned that the price you first see for a cruise is only a drop in the bucket

the grand total came in at being almost five thousand dollars exactly and this was after the sticker price of 832 dollars

we still think the cruise vacation is good value for your money yeah affordable for sure

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go all the way through the booking process to see the true total cost before paying
Check your onboard account for billing errors before disembarking
