Seasoned cruiser here. Love your content. Keep up the great job.
Thank you so much. When is your next sailing? 🛳️
Thank you. Im a first time cruiser and came across your content. It has helped alot.
@@kendrajonnell2739 thanks so much 🙏🏾. Where do you plan to cruise first? Or you don’t have anything booked yet?
@JustTrippn looking still seeking information I'm definitely excited though.Mind is make up.
@@kendrajonnell2739 I’d say Nassau or Cozumel are great places to start. The water is amazing regardless, and the culture and food are 💣
@JustTrippn I will definitely look into it thank you. I LOVE YOUR OTHER CONTENT AS WELL .
@@kendrajonnell2739 much gratitude. 🙏🏾 I can’t wait to hear your feedback after you cruise.
Thank you for the video. I learned a lot I'm about to take my second Cruise. WTG ❤
Where are you headed. And you are more than welcome.
@@JustTrippn I'm going to the Bahamas in November on carnival
Oh by the way, Cool name for your show 😄
@@rosecouch7343 much gratitude 🙏🏾
@@rosecouch7343 what part? Nassau, Freeport etc,? I’ve been to Nassau several times and love it. One of my favorite food vendors is there.
Going on my first cruise in May. This was very helpful thanks ❤
Glad I could be of some help. Where are you headed. And just be prepared to be hooked lol
More tips. Always get insurance. Cruiselines insurance almost always costs more and provides much less. Get your travel agent to give you an insurance quote.
Never book directly with the cruiselines. Always use a travel agent. You will never pay more with an agent. You will often pay less, get extra perks, etc. Any issues? Your agent will spend time on hold with the cruiseline! You won’t! You can choose to let the cruiseline pay your travel agent who will give you personal attention, or you can choose just to give that same money to the cruiseline which will not give you the same level of personal attention. Do make sure your agent has experience with cruises.
With my Royal Caribbean cruise we checked in 6 weeks in advance. When you book you should be told when checkin is.
@@JaniceCrowell okay good i g bought the insurance
@@JaniceCrowell Royal and Carnival function differently. Royal lets you check in about 45 days prior where as Carnival is 14 days prior.
The ship does not exactly try to find you. They will leave your passports with the port and they will report you missing. They will not wait. Even if you are on the pier they don’t always open the doors once closed. It’s a ship, not a boat. You seem really nice. I hope your channel grows.
Every situation is different. I’ve seen them send security off the boat to look in the port near the boat. I’ve also seen some get left. Regardless people should make sure they pay attention to the ship time and not island time. And thank you for the kind words. 🙏🏾
750ml for wine and champagne
Thanks for that.
I'm confused on what the deposit is for?
The deposit is what you pay to hold a spot on the cruise ship. What I was saying is depending on your VIFP level, that deposit can vary. Some deposits are as low as $50/pp and some are as high as $100/$200/pp depending on the amount of days sailing etc. all rooms are based on double occupancy though. I hope this cleared it up. If not ask me directly what you meant. 🙏🏾
Oh, I see! My family and I are going on a cruise next week for the 1st time. And I've just been feeling anxious about it because I feel like there's so much I need to know beforehand. 🥴
@@christinaoshaughnessy1974 that’s amazing. Where are you headed. And I know you will have a blast.
@JustTrippn we are driving to long Beach from SF and going on 5 day to Catalina Island and Ensenada! How's the internet onboard?
@@christinaoshaughnessy1974 that’s sweet. I’ll be doing that in August but it will hit Cabo instead. And the internet to me works fine. Just purchase the package that best suits what you want to do. And if it’s not working great. Go to guest services and they can remove it.
