Welcome to the Royal Caribbean Blog Podcast, your weekly look into the world of Royal Caribbean Cruising.

0:21.4

I'm your host Matt Hachberg, and this is episode number 547.

0:25.9

You know, my email inbox is getting pretty full, and so this week I wanted to answer your questions,

0:31.5

so we're dedicating this entire episode to list your emails you sent in.

Here we go.
