Creator's Key Takeaways

Norwegian Aqua was my 80th cruise.

The ship just absolutely beautiful. Even for it being so new, we always we always warn people that that inaugural the first couple of weeks of a ship being live because this ship is only a couple weeks old.

We are going to put out so much videos uh in the coming days, weeks, months even um with all of our experiences that we had on board and we are so excited to share all of those details with you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack extra patience for the first couple of weeks of a new ship's operation.
