Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
I have Viking insurance videos out there and airfare videos and I also have Viking uh shore excursion videos.
So, a lot of you have done that. You booked directly. You moved your booking to me to get the onboard credit and then we get to work together directly.
So, basically, the more money you can afford on Viking, the better it is because you will get to book everything earlier, which which is going to give you all the preferred times.
This is the lowest category where you can get the double sink. So, right away, that's kind of nice cuz, you know, sometimes we come back from tours and we're rushing to dinner and, you know, you both got to get ready at the same time and you're you don't want to be fighting with each other over one sink.
