Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean is taking away the exemption that they used to have if guests were going to be together in a cabin and one of them wanted the um beverage package that includes alcohol and the other one did not.

Carnival Corporation has just announced that on the Queen Anne, that's the only ship for now of Kunards, they are going to start charging guests to watch production shows by Bright Light Society.

Would you pay for entertainment on a cruise ship? Let me know that in the comments.

I think there is too much sharing going on. I think that you have too many people who are saying that they don't want the package, can't have the package, whatever. they get that exemption and then um they still um drink off the other person's package.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check if your hotel has a balcony during a heat wave for better comfort.
Consider buying drinks individually if only one guest can use a beverage package for medical reasons.
Monitor how entertainment charges on Queen Anne might affect other cruise lines.
