Hey, what's up? My name is Doug Parker. Thank you so much for checking out this episode of Cruise Radio. Very happy to have you here, my friend.

So looking forward to that review a little later on in the show. Stuart Sheeran on the cruise guy is standing by with Cruise News. Before we get to him, don't forget about a couple of things.
