This is Cruise Radio.

Hey, how's it going?

My name is Doug Parker.

Thank you so much for checking out this episode of Cruise Radio. A double header for you this week. So Stuart Sheeron, the Cruise guy. We checked in with him last month when he was floating around on Celebrity Millennium on the first sailing open to U.S. residents. Now he's across the ditch in the agency. Checking out things on Celebrity Apex on an eight-night Mediterranean cruise.

And then later on in the show, we'll check in with Noam. He just returned from Royal Caribbean's

Freedom of the Seas. It was a four-night cruise that went to Nassau and Perfect Day out of Port

Miami. We'll get a full recap of that voyage as well. If you're looking for the cruise news,

YouTube channel. All right, Stuart Sheeron, the cruise guy is punched up and ready to go. What's new out

there? Well, Doug, sailing out here in the Aegean Sea, well, what have I done? I've gone from the

Caribbean to the Mediterranean and the weather is just spectacular.

So between millennium to edge to apex, it's just been a seriously surreal experience.

Each one uniquely different.

And all I could tell you is it's just been extraordinary to be able to sail on such large ships with so few people and go into ports with so few people.

You get a better, a better chance to experience.

A good example was Santorini, which usually they'll have, you know, seven to maybe eight, nine ships out there.

And the pork could be packed. The town of Thera is packed. And we just had a few ships.
