Creator's Key Takeaways

we are on our way to our first trip of 2024 yes it's been 8 Months 8 months since our most recent cruise and we're finally getting back on a cruise ship

I actually worked all the way up until today which is breaking one of my rules which is make sure that you take a day off a gap day between your travel before you go and after you go

the leg room in bulkhead seats was not as spacious as I thought it might be thank God for compression socks and Crocs

the waffles had a nice fruit syrup and they were actually the tastiest thing we ate on board this flight

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take a gap day between travel before and after to avoid feeling tired
βœ“Consider regular economy seats over bulkhead for more leg room
βœ“Read ratings on TripAdvisor and Google when booking hotels
