Creator's Key Takeaways
I'm taking a 42 day cruise on Star of the Seas.
I'm on standby, which means I have no idea what my room is until it is assigned to me after the ship has already started sailing away.
I have never had this room before. This is such a unique thing for a cruise ship.
I'm feeling very lucky. I cannot believe I got this room.
