Creator's Key Takeaways
Sometimes spending just a little bit more to make sure you get what you want will be worth it in the long run.
We always recommend trying to book midship if possible, especially if you're not sure if you're seasick or if you are seasick because that's where you're going to feel the least amount of motion.
