Creator's Key Takeaways

I've actually broken my record. My my record before for two people for a seven night cruise was on the it was on the Celebrity Eclipse.

I'm now paying $867 for an ocean view room, albeit obstructed, for uh $837, seven nights, two people out of San Diego on the NCL Jade.

You couldn't get that on land for $61 a day, even in the 1950s.

You don't want to be above the nightclub on any ship at any time.
