Cruise Lines Are Getting Pushback | Royal Caribbean, NCL & Carnival

This week on Cruise Talk Weekly, Tony and Tommy dive into another wild week in cruising. From Royal Caribbean hitting a major roadblock in Mexico to Carnival slap fights, buffet crackdowns, NCL ceiling collapses, and the growing debate around cruise line changes, there's a lot to unpack.

The guys also discuss solo cruising, cruise line gimmicks, ship-within-a-ship experiences, Carnival's new loyalty opt-in, and whether cruise lines are starting to push passengers too far.
