Regarding finances, the creator suggests monitoring cruise bills regularly to catch errors early and keeping mobile phones on flight mode to prevent excessive roaming charges.

Socially, the creator advises against yelling at crew members, being an attention seeker during entertainment, or touching communal food in buffets.
