Creator's Key Takeaways

these are things I wish I knew when I first started cruising and things I wish other people knew when they first started cruising

I would definitely recommend travel insurance this is very important to have if anything goes wrong they should cover it

I would definitely recommend flying in a few days before just so you can be safe and make sure that you make the cruise

I honestly think this is super important to make the most of your cruise and this is to not worry and expect that if something goes wrong don't let it ruin your cruise
