FRUSTRATED WITH THIS CRUISE PROCESS

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator shares a personal account regarding the return to in-person safety briefings on the NCL Breakaway. He describes the experience at his muster station as chaotic and frustrating due to long wait times and strict enforcement of silence. He notes that passengers were required to stand in silence without using mobile devices for approximately twenty minutes before the actual presentation began. The creator expresses dissatisfaction with being shushed by announcements while waiting in line. He recounts a specific incident where a passenger became highly agitated and threatened to walk off the ship because of the delay and the heat. The creator observes that the crew member handling the scanner appeared indifferent to the passenger's outburst. Ultimately, the creator concludes that while the experience was unpleasant, it might influence his future booking decisions to favor cruise lines that utilize electronic muster processes instead of in-person requirements.

Creator's Key Takeaways
well to say that the return to the in-person safety meeting kind of sucks would be an understatement
it was bad it was bad it was bad to the point where I thought there was going to be a dude getting kicked off a cruise ship for freaking out
maybe when I'm booking my next Cruise if I have the choice between a cruise line that has in-person muster and a cruise line that still uses the e-muster I might be inclined to choose the cruise line that has the E muster
