    Send it Back! Or Not_ MDR Etiquette - S3E17

    On our current vlog series, we received a lot of comments about how we handled a few dining-room situations when the food wasn’t quite right — and it sparked a really interesting conversation. So in this livestream, we’re asking: when something goes wrong, do you send it back, politely speak with your server, mention it to guest services, or simply let it go? We’ll share our own approach, talk about the difference between constructive feedback and unnecessary complaining, and discuss the etiquette of handling those awkward cruise moments in a way that is fair to both the guest and the crew.Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel.We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between!🔥We hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! ⭐️Join our Socials at:➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks➡️ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/➡️ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social➡️ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com➡️ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/➡️ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3fWe can be reached at:Cruising Canucks • P.O.

    Princess Changes on Regal Princess - S3E13

    We’re back from our Caribbean cruise aboard the Regal Princess, and we have plenty to talk about! Princess has made several changes since our previous cruises—some that genuinely improved the experience and had us pleasantly surprised, and a couple that left us scratching our heads and wondering, “Why?” Join us live as we share the highlights, the changes we enjoyed, the things that did not quite make sense, and our honest overall impressions of the Regal Princess.Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel.We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between!🔥We hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! ⭐️Join our Socials at:➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks➡️ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/➡️ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social➡️ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com➡️ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/➡️ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3fWe can be reached at:Cruising Canucks • P.O.

    Do Classic Cruisers Matter? - S3E12

    Join us for a thoughtful and fun livestream as we ask the question: Do cruise lines still care about classic cruisers? We’ll talk about the traditional style of cruising so many of us fell in love with — great food, warm and personable service, elegant dining rooms, relaxed pool decks, friendly crew, and that special “Love Boat” feeling that made cruising feel different from any other vacation. As the big cruise lines continue to evolve with bigger ships, more add-ons, technology, and a more corporate feel, we’ll discuss whether classic cruisers are still being prioritized, or whether smaller and premium cruise lines may be the ones keeping that timeless cruise experience alive. Bring your thoughts, memories, and opinions — we’d love to hear what classic cruising means to you.Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel.We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between!🔥We hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! ⭐️Join our Socials at:➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks➡️ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/➡️ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social➡️ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com➡️ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/➡️ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3fWe can be reached at:Cruising Canucks • P.O.

    Using AI on Cruise Vacations - S3E11

    Join us live as we dive into how AI is changing the way we plan, research, and enjoy cruising. From figuring out travel arrangements before you sail, to understanding onboard details, comparing options, organizing documents, and getting helpful information about ports of call, AI can be a surprisingly useful travel companion. We’ll share practical examples of how cruisers can use tools like ChatGPT to save time, reduce stress, and make smarter decisions before and during a cruise — while still keeping the fun, spontaneity, and real-life adventure that cruising is all about.Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel.We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between!🔥We hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! ⭐️Join our Socials at:➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks➡️ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/➡️ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social➡️ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com➡️ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/➡️ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3fWe can be reached at:Cruising Canucks • P.O.
