Creator's Key Takeaways

A lot of the things that get labeled as touristy are popular because they're genuinely worthwhile.

loyalty should confirm that you're already in the right place. It should not be the reason you never leave.

I've caught myself standing at the pool bar mentally calculating whether I was getting enough value out of my drink package instead of actually enjoying the drink in my hand

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't dismiss 'touristy' excursions just because they are popular.
Don't stay loyal to a cruise line solely to chase points if the benefits don't match your personal needs.
Stop comparing every new cruise line to your 'baseline' cruise line; instead, ask what that specific line stands for.
Avoid spending more energy trying not to waste money than actually enjoying what you have already paid for.
