Review summary

Great cruise. My only issue was that they only have CNN as an option for news. Frustrating as it was all presidential bashing.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Somehow we qualified for VIP (maybe because we booked a suite) so we were expedited through and that’ was really nice. We had a tip to go right to the buffet before everyone else got there and that was a great tip!

Agree with you @bobtuba and @ginaandrob. Too bad that some people allow any newscast to determine what they think. The ability to research and find the facts and form our own opinions seems to have been lost. Too many people allow the media to dictate what we should feel or think. Sad. I try to unplug from any news media when I’m cruising. Perhaps a little naive on my part, but it’s part of my escape from all the insanity. 🍸

I would agree with you about that. I am amazed that given CNN s obvious anti conservative bent, that it is a news option ever. I wonder if they pay the cruise line like they pay the airports across the country.

So many places only show CNN or MSNBC. It’s sad to think so many people watch and believe that sewage.

That’s interesting. On all the cruises I’ve been on they’ve had both CNN and Fox News. Maybe it’s cruise line/ship specific? 🍸
