Creator's Key Takeaways

i did test positive for covid19 while aboard royal caribbean's freedom of the seas on the new year's eve sailing

the cruise ship does refund you for the portion of time that you are in quarantine

the quarantine floor is a sober floor and room service will not deliver alcohol to the sick patients

i am still not feeling well it might be a little bit awkward for all of you who have watched me through this journey

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓If you test positive, you will be moved to a quarantine floor and refunded for that time.

✓Quarantine floors are sober; alcohol is not delivered.

✓You may not have a key card for your quarantine room.

✓Wait until you feel better and get a negative test before booking another cruise.
