KJones Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 There are quite a number of people on the world cruise documenting their travels on tiktok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonCruiser Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Oh trust me #UltimateWorldCruise had Tiktok by the throat for the first two weeks or so. Since I was already (via algorithim) on the "cruisetok" side of tiktok, I started seeing lots of them and through that realized that cruisers and noncruisers alike were HOOKED on the idea. I think the accessibility of Royal Caribbean makes it so fascinating. I mean Oceania does world cruises every year but no one cared to talk about those Lol. And I'm pretty sure Viking has been in the world cruise game for a while too... But yeah, there's actually several people vlogging it in different ways and many of the people documenting their experiences have met up and become friends (or at least friendly). I saw a funny video with a Full House style theme introducing the "cast" of the World Cruise hahaha Shari, KJones and Jenn G-MEI Travel 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geezer Of The Seas Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 It's the Internet, and one can do wonderous things with a computer these days. There was a recent story on CNN or Fox News website about the Tic Tac craze on the world cruise. The one video snippet I could watch on the website (don't do any of the social media sites) looked suspiciously................contrived, shall we say? Can't even remember who the 'influencer' was, though they seemed more under the influence. Clicks+Ads=$$$$. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brando95 Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 There's a couple putting up semi-regular YouTube videos. Short digestable videos. Living Phase 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingNewb Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 Frankly, I'd be surprised if there weren't any social media bloggers/vloggers for the World Cruise. You pay $100,000 a person...it would make sense to upload some short videos and try to monetize them to make back some of that cost. That's just me thinking out loud. The byproduct of these tiktoks and youtube is that we get to see what the burn out rate, drama, and other things associated with an extended cruise is like. I know that my wife and I are interested in the World Cruise, but hesitant about the burn out. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
