You're listening to the Cruise Tips TV Unplugged podcast.

Today on the show, we're helping some of our listener determine what might be the next best cruise line for them.

Welcome to Cruise Tips TV Unplugged.

I'm your host, Sherry, and we invite you to join our cruise-loving family as we travel

the world creating cruise videos and vlogs. In this podcast, we talk tips, tactics, and strategies

to help you make every cruise your dream cruise. Interesting. Hey, welcome back, by the way. You're here. I am here. Bare, barely.

But I'm here. You're here. Well, we're so glad to have you here. For those of you who don't know what we're

talking about, my poor co-host here had a rough patch for about three weeks with a cough.

So he decided to sit it out with the podcast because it's no fun when you're trying to suppress a cough and talk. But we're so glad you're here. It wouldn't have been possible. No, you couldn't have made it. It's not like I just decided, hey, I'm not going to do this today. I couldn't talk. Yeah, you did have a hard time. For a couple weeks there, it was rough.

Royal Caribbean, right? But they're thinking about

switching over, trying something else. And they're having a little bit of a difficult time doing that

because they are like ready to relax. Their kids are grown up. They like some shows. They like

hanging out by the pool. But they don't really feel like they have to have like activity all the time. So they are in their middle age mid-50s and they have obviously no kids right now because their kids are grown. So what we're trying to stay away from for them just to cut to the chase and then we'll back it up a little bit. We want to stay away from short party cruises.

Maybe Carnival is not for them.

They've said that based on what they've seen in recent videos, they don't drink either.

And they probably want to steer clear of Disney since they don't have kids and it's just not really of interest to them.

But other than that, they want everybody's ideas. See, it's interesting because it, there are some factors here that could

make the difference. Yes. Because if they want something completely different, then, you know,

something, maybe something like MSC or Princess, but if they want just a little transition,
