Creator's Key Takeaways

We have another cruise ship that is suffering through a gastronomical outbreak for 13 days on this sailing.

NCL is now saying they're going to status match across their three divisions of cruise lines.

A gentleman who had $23,000 seized at the Canadian border when he was on a cruise.

Always declare if you're carrying a large amount of cash across and who's carrying $23,000 US on a 7-day cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Request a status match with the cruise line at least 10 days before sailing.
Declare large amounts of cash when crossing borders to avoid fines or seizure.
Find out cash limits for foreign countries before traveling.
