This was a three-night, invitation-only sailing. In this video, I tell you how these types of trips work and what’s included. Plus I give you an overview of all my experiences. I hope you enjoy.

    Loved your video. Mr. & Mrs.Sourpuss are people who are never happy.

    I was considering the Haven on the Viva, but when Cruising with Ben and David showed it's lack of real butler and concierge care and the cost not including coffee in the restaurant or bars or lounging area and when you wanted to have a specialty dinner brought to your room they charged the room service fee for it to be brought there and served. Several other disappointing items are making me rethink trying the Haven on the Viva.
    One thing that really amazed me was that the Haven room didn't come with free containers of water! Ben and David had to buy a 12 pk.

    I love how appreciative you are of the opportunity for a free cruise1 It really is a downer when you have a sourpuss or two tainting the vibe. You're VIP status is well deserved!

    Thank you. So much for this video. THIS is why we love your videos because you are so down to earth. Thank you.
    So sorry for your dealing with the sour pusses. Don't let it bring you down. At least you had an adventure 😊.
    Your videos are very well done.

      Awww thank you! We had a great cruise on the Viva. Some people just aren’t happy. 😁

    Great review! Thank you! Hope you had a great time in the mountains as well.

    I was laughing so hard when Mr. Sourpuss was feeling seasick and you were still docked. 😂 If I found out my travel agent acted like that, I would fire them immediately. No reason for that. Especially when they give them a free cruise!

    I really don’t know how you can be a miserable person on a cruise?! Thanks for the video! I’m sticking with Virgin though because those ships just look too big to me.

      I avoid them like the plague.. They spread negativity like the pestulance!

    Great video as usual!
    Only thing is watching it made me seasick! Ha!
    It seems most cruises always have that one Indvidual or couple that are Debbie Downers. We like to make fun of em!

    We are sailing next week. I have read some rather disturbing reviews. But your posting gave me more optimism

    Wow... nice to know some TAs feel like veterans shouldn't get a discount.

    • @freshlysqueezedtravels
      @freshlysqueezedtravels  6 месяцев назад +1

      I think they think that they shouldn’t get less commission if a line offers a discount. But yes. It was awkward.

    • @HighSeasHowes
      @HighSeasHowes 6 месяцев назад

      Wow. That's terrible. Ncl should eat the cost.

  • @racruisers2398
    @racruisers2398 6 месяцев назад +1

    Don’t worry. There are so many rude people out there. Glad it didn’t damper your mood.

    Honestly...i feel Mr & Mrs SourPuss should be named bc who on earth would want to work with them? 😬

  • @cruisingforone
    @cruisingforone 6 месяцев назад

    Thank you - Mr. Sourpuss (Jkjk lol)

  • @rgruenhaus
    @rgruenhaus 6 месяцев назад

    Should be similar to the Prima, right?

  • @Stephanie-vx4zi
    @Stephanie-vx4zi 2 месяца назад

    Mr & Mrs Sourpuss sound VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! They're there to work! To learn all about the ship and its amenities on behalf of their customers. They have huge egos and self entitlement! I would not want to use that type of T.A!😮
