Things people do on a cruise that I don't understand at all

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a list of cruise activities and behaviors that he believes are unnecessary or counterproductive. He begins by distinguishing between personal preferences, such as enjoying club parties or the FlowRider, and actions that he considers a waste of time or money. He advises against seeking free charms in ports or shops because they often lead to high-pressure sales environments. Regarding art auctions, he warns that they can be deceptive due to questionable valuations and the fact that art is shipped later rather than taken on board immediately. The creator also discourages the use of hotel shuttles and park and stay packages, suggesting that travelers instead find the best hotel at the best rate and use rideshare services like Uber or Lyft to maintain control over their schedule. Additionally, he criticizes passengers who refuse to use online check-in services, noting that doing so manually at the terminal wastes significant time. Finally, he expresses strong disapproval for anyone who disrespects cruise crew members, stating that passengers should escalate issues to management rather than berating frontline workers.
