Planning on staying in a king room for my solo cruise on Royal Caribbean Super close to the port too like a $7 Uber

Well done

How much are the cabanas?

Is there smoking allowed on the lanai?

Is it worth $249?

Why are you talking about the Polynesian center when you’re reviewing your hotel? Hotel reviews way too short.

I Love your videos Because there is No Annoying music in the background!!

Going Club room for sure for 2 nights but still deciding if the Extra $500 for Ocean Front vs Ocean View is absolutely worth it?

SCAM. Wrong. You do STILL pay for 2! Just found a NCL bliss cruise- STUDIO WAS $1678 BALCONY WAS $1798. Why would I pay for 94 inside sq ft. NCL also offers solo cruisers access to solo area even if you srent in a studio cabin. SCAM. they charge you so much more for so much less.

I won my bid and I’ve never been on a cruise before. I don’t think diamond status matters lol

Video doesn't tell you "HOW TO WIN" dumb.

Hell ya ! Bring it on! 😎

The description states there is an infinity pool, but it is not seen in any part of the video. Can anyone verify a pool in addition to the hot tubs?

Very nice description

😮 on a huge cruise ship????😮 don't they have security on board???? Wait a minute.....🥺

Captain jack sparrow who

I would fly to my destination, on open water your vulnerable, my thoughts, I would just pray❤❤

Jeez, could you not have moved your BIG face further back from your camera! That's bad looking.

I'd be excited to meet Jack Sparrow..😅

Whoa

I would prefer an O/V, but for one person, it is a great option. My mother is widowed and I hate that cruise lines charge her 200%. She doesn’t eat for two. Some lines are 120-150% depending on the itinerary.

I’m going on a cruise next year! I’m so excited!!

The best vacation around

Pirates are real and they still exist. You never know when or where they may attack. Safety drills hanging out in hallways is a logical response. Passengers should be prepared for any event.

Never forget those cruise ships are heavily armed with many different tactics of fighting pirates. Of course it’s not talked about much and no one wants to be in the middle of a battle.

I've sailed through waters known for pirates. On our return voyage, we had to inspect and destroy one of their decoys that they use to delay and trap smaller vessels. Take piracy seriously. Follow the instructions and guidelines given to you.

Memorise your talk, reading it looks bad.

ANOTHER great reason to avoid the moving shopping mall.

I would

I’d go on the cruise if I knew how long I’d be in the hallway, and how frequently

Why cruise if you want to do more than sleep, shower & dress in your room?

That shower is actually perfect suze

Wendy, Can you email me? I'll give you all info for my wife and I to go there again. We went 15 years ago and would like to go again. I heard May is less expensive. Thanks, Tony

A friend of mine who lived on a boat got boarded by pirates they stole there money, jewelry and alcohol and then kidnapped them and took them to an island to talk to there leader and after being given a warning about never putting to Anker in that area they let them go after taking them back to there boat. She told me that she had been eyeing the sea shells on the beach of the island they where taken to because they where so beautiful but was to afraid to pick one up that when the pirates left the youngest one gave her a box and inside was the seashells.

Mean while the cruise ship workers live in a bunk that's half that size lol

Why not talk about the bear? I bet that bear has seen more of the world than everyone commenting.

Absolutely not! lol

I couldn’t do that I would die it’s too small I’m claustrophobic

I’d do this if there was a window or balcony option. All well and good until you are quarantined/sick and can’t even get fresh air…

Sorry I just pay the double get more privacy and a much bigger room including a balcony.

I booked one studio cabin on the Prima for a 10 day cruise back in 2022. I loved it and like how the concept got developed. The lounge is also amazing.

They are the bomb. Love that they cater to us singles

Watch your prices.. just because there is no solo supplement, doesn’t mean it’s cheaper than a regular inside cabin, and occasionally an ocean view… especially if they drop the solo supplement if the cruise is undersold. They are way too small for my taste.

For the same reason I will never fly commercial, I shall likewise never take a cruise. I refuse to travel far from home unarmed. In this day and time, Pirates are a real possibility. I do not care to be on a ship, disarmed.

Not Zeus...but Suez canal🙄

Yep, I would go for the drama.

A RHIB boat with a decent outboard could easy catch up to a cruise shit (iirc the largest ones max out at about 35-40 knots in perfect conditions which you're struggle to do coming out of the Suez Canal or anywhere coastal really) whereas a pair of decent outboard motors strapped to a RHIB can push you over 50 or even 60 knots. Of course, as mentioned in various comments, the major issue is that cruise ships are essentially skyscrapers that have been gently rolled into the ocean. The hull often has nothing to climb for 15-20 meters (45-65ft) around their entire perimeter (which makes boarding from another boat impossible when they're underway), and when under power the displacement of the water creates a fast-flowing cushion of turbulent water along the entire boat which would be virtually impenetrable for almost any vessel pirates could be using. The major concern is that they could get smart and take up a frontward position directly under the bow of the ship (with enough distance to avoid being hit by the cruise ship, of course) and they might then threaten to jettison explosives that could be pulled beneath the ship by the movement of the cruise ship and then detonated underwater. This wouldn't sink the ship in 99.9999 percent of cases but the cost of doing a full metallurgical analysis of the hull (absolutely necessary if a passenger ship is damaged in such a way that you might not be able to immediately notice any small fractures or shrapnel pitting during a basic inspection) would likely have the entire vessel out of commission for several weeks. They might have to travel half way around the world for a dry-dock to even do the inspection. Oh, and they couldn't have any passengers aboard the entire time - immediate full civilian emergency evacuation (nightmare scenario, people always get hurt in evacuations and they're liable to sue). This would all drive your public liability insurance premium through the roof, sky high. You're likely talking a short term loss of $15m-$20m and a long term cost of $40+m (just guesstimates) assuming there was no real damage. If the props or the the maneuvering thrusters were damaged at all that might be another month in dry-dock and another $10m in repairs... Yeah, in that case lost trade, insurance premium increases, and replacement components might feasibly cost the company over $100,000,000. Keep in mind, of course, that the passengers are at no meaningful risk should this happen. Pirates don't carry ship-to-ship torpedoes or nuclear sea-mines (typically). The only major concern is financial... But for a cruise company that's the scariest danger that there is (cruise companies are probably the greediest companies in the world, in my experience). A clever-clogs pirate with a box full of old dynamite, some plastic wrap (to keep it dry), maybe a few old soviet mortar or artillery shells, and a couple of hand grenades (total cost of $100-$500 on the black market) could conceivably ransom a cargo worth $30m-$100m to the cruise company without ever needing to board the ship. It's not like a cruise ship can stop and avoid a wooden crate filled with explosives, can it? They likely don't even have any way of seeing it. They're a little more maneuverable than oil tankers but they might still need a quarter of an hour to completely stop when they're at full speed. So yeah, the era of pirates with AK's robbing the Captain's safe for the ship's valuables is probably over. We'll probably start seeing more creative pirates using the above method, or quadracopter drones with grenades, or other strange strategies. They just too valuable and too poorly protected to ignore for people with nothing to lose... We're literally sailing the biggest and grandest (and gaudiest) palaces in the world right past the most poverty stricken places in the world. We're inviting trouble and we don't even have to, really. There's plenty of perfectly safe cruise routes, and it's not like ons stretch of ocean looks much different to any other stretch of ocean. The drunk passengers watching Jurassic Park and playing slots don't care which country they're nearest to, that's the whole point for a lot of passengers: escaping the "real world" for a few weeks. Live like royalty and ignore reality.

My wife and I will be celebrating our 35th Wedding Anniversary on the Oosterdam in October 2024 on the Beautiful Mediterranean from Athens to Barcelona.... See you there!!! CAN'T WAIT!!!!!🥰😍😘❤
