Creator's Key Takeaways
I've been on 45 cruises and I was surprised to see the statistic that I have now spent even over a 100 nights on Royal Caribbean cruise ships.
I have just decided it's time to accept that people are going to watch videos and shows on their devices without using headphones.
I'm going to call you out. If you're taking a quick video or taking a photo in a theater where they have said that that is allowed, I'm fine with that.
If you're smoking on your balcony next to me, we're going to get to know each other and I'll try to be nice, but I'm also going to tell on you.

After over 15 years of making travel videos and spending 100+ nights on Royal Caribbean, I’ve realized something: the way people act on cruise ships is changing. From loud FaceTime calls in the Windjammer to the "wild west" of the buffet water stations, it's easy to spend your whole vacation being annoyed. In this video, I’m sharing why I’ve decided to QUIT... expecting better. I’m breaking down the 4 things I’m finally giving up on for the sake of my own happiness, and the 2 major cruise etiquette "rules" where I am still absolutely putting my foot down (including what happens when you smoke on the balcony next to me!). Is cruise etiquette officially dead, or am I just getting older? Let’s talk about it in the comments. #cruise #cruiseline #cruiseship #cruising #manners #royalcaribbean #carnivalcruise #ncl In this video: 0:00 Hello from Odyssey of the Seas! 1:46 The FaceTime/Speakerphone Epidemic 3:30 Watching videos without headphones 5:08 Public swearing and vulgarity 7:17 The Buffet Water Bottle struggle 8:55 What I will NEVER give up on: Theater Etiquette 9:55 The Balcony Smoking Debate (and why I'll tell on you) Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0qb5AAbSI9kcjptctjWs1g/join Get my NEW BOOK, "Places, Please!" on Amazon: Link for USA: https://amzn.to/49v7OCd "Getting Stitches on a Cruise Ship" Book Link for UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09MV7KR5K "Getting Stitches on a Cruise Ship" Book Link for Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09MV7KR5K "Getting Stitches on a Cruise Ship" Book Link for Australia: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B09MV7KR5K Get exclusive videos and behind the scenes looks here: https://www.patreon.com/veryunofficial Amazon links to my gear, and other fun stuff I wish I had! https://www.amazon.com/shop/veryunofficialtravelguides Follow on: www.facebook.com/MorgansVeryunOfficialTravelGuides Instagram @MrMorganOBrien Twitter: @MrMorganOBrien Affiliate Links: I receive a small percentage from purchases made from affiliate links that may be contained in this description.
