Creator's Key Takeaways
2025 is going to be a banner year for brand new cruise ships
we're a little disappointed in this change because this restaurant will be replacing food Republic
let's hope this ship is a success and Disney Cruise Line considers building a sister ship for the North American Market
those cruise ships that are already sailing are probably considerably cheaper than their new sister ships launching in 2025
