Creator's Key Takeaways

so going on a cruise is super fun both for you and the entire family however there are some hidden fees that aren't often talked about until this video

the first fee that many new Cruisers forget about or don't understand is that Wi-Fi is not free

the second hidden fee that we want to talk about is understanding tips or gratuiti tips or gratuiti is actually already included

the next hidden fee is actually room service no longer is room service free

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Buy Wi-Fi package beforehand to avoid roaming charges
✓Book with a travel agent to potentially get free Wi-Fi
✓Pay for tips or gratuities ahead of time to lock in rates
✓Get travel insurance that covers cruise medical expenses
✓Bring your own drinks on board to save on beverage costs
