0:00.0 | Welcome to the Royal Caribbean blog podcast, your weekly look into the world of Railroad cruising. I'm your host, Matt Hodgeberg, and this is episode number 440. What's worth actually |
0:25.6 | spending extra money for on your real comming cruise? There's a lot of different options you can |
0:29.4 | choose from, but which are the ones that I think are totally worth your money? I've got a list |
0:33.4 | to the ones that I think are worth your money and not worth your money on this week's episode. |
0:37.1 | Here we go. Every vacation dollar counts and a lot of times people really want to know |
0:43.5 | what is truly worth spending extra for on a cruise. When you go on a real coming cruise, your cruise |
0:49.3 | fair includes a lot of things, but not everything by any means. And there's a lot that you can |
0:53.1 | choose from in order to add on to your cruise. And there's a lot that you can choose from in order |
0:54.3 | to add on to your cruise. And I like to think that the idea of making your cruise as inclusive |

1:17.0 | for the experiences and add-ons that you want is an advantage. I don't think it goes into that |
1:21.9 | realm of nickel and diming. Nickel and diming truly is essentially about, you know, |
1:26.2 | things that would have otherwise been included, but you're paying extra for or more likely things that used to be included that you're now paying extra for, right? |
1:32.6 | Luggage on an airplane classic example of that. |
1:34.9 | When it comes to cruising, you know, Rilkrum has never been an all-inclusive cruise line, right? |
1:38.4 | There are all-inclusive cruise lines, and those cruise lines cost significantly more than a R rural Caribbean cruise, but we're not here to |
1:44.1 | talk about that. We're talking about what things are truly worth spending extra for. |
1:48.0 | So I wanted to have a list of things that I think you probably would consider spending extra |
1:54.4 | for. And I say that because this is really a subjective question, right? I can sit here and spend two |
