Creator's Key Takeaways
Most people think getting kicked off a cruise only happens after a fight, bad behavior, or breaking serious rules. That's not true anymore.
Cruise lines have updated multiple policies that hit passengers over 65 harder than anyone else.
If you're planning a cruise and assuming I've done this before, I'll be fine. That assumption alone can cost you your entire vacation.
One of the fastest ways a senior can lose a cruise is with a mobility device that's slightly too wide.
