Here\u2019s Why (Podcast #559)","description":"Are cruise lines really getting worse? Many cruisers say yes. So I analysed hundreds of recent reviews and ratings from Cruise Critic, Trustpilot, and major review sites \u2014 and the results were shocking. Over two-thirds of cruise lines have seen satisfaction drop in the last six months, but six once-popular lines have fallen the most\u2026 and for reasons you absolutely need to know before booking.
