Creator's Key Takeaways

number one is online check-in once your cruise is paid in full and you are within the advanced booking window you'll be able to schedule and manage onboard activities and port adventure excursions

i cannot stress how important it is to get there a day early even if you live three or four hours from the port

you cannot do it all i'll say that again you cannot do it all
