Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Factor in the cost of a pre-cruise stay in Rome and private transfers.
βœ“Use the Navigator app to complete safety essentials and request cabin preferences.
βœ“Consider drink packages based on your drinking habits due to service charges.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Cost of pre-cruise stay and transfers β€” Budget for a pre-cruise stay in Rome and consider cheaper options like trains or shared transfers.
Cabin location and numbering β€” Odd numbers are on one side; cabins 41-4089 are odd on one side, so check your boarding pass for exact location.
