Creator's Key Takeaways

Norwegian is announcing a huge price hike in their crew appreciation slash gratuities so before now the gratuities have been around 16 a day

I think that it is very reflective of where the cruise lines stand right now not only is everything going up as the cost of Labor

the sanctuary is a place that you need to book right when you get on the ship and if you really want to be able to use that Sanctuary go there first

it's not double for the cabin it's just for one okay if you've got any other questions about that let me know but it is a wonderful benefit

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book the Sanctuary immediately upon boarding the ship to ensure availability.

✓If you have already booked a Princess package, you will keep your current rate and perks unless you proactively call to upgrade.

✓To avoid room service charges on Norwegian, consider picking up breakfast from the buffet yourself.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

The Sanctuary availability — Go there first when you get on the ship and sign up for a half or full day.

Understanding shareholder benefits — Note that the benefit is per cabin, not per person, even if both are on the brokerage account.
