Views & Queues FAQs
Do you two have jobs? Yes! We both have full time careers. Brian is a Software Engineer and Kerry is a Graphic Designer.
Is this vlog a paid promotion with the cruise line? No, we have never worked with a cruise line before (I doubt they even know who we are 😂). If that ever changes, we will be sure to let you know in the video.
What are those black pouches around your neck? We use the lanyards to carry some camera equipment, but many cruisers like to wear lanyards to hold their room key card.
What camera do you use? We typically use the DJI Pocket II, however, when we are in the water we use the Go Pro Hero 9, and in Alaska we occasionally used the Nikon P1000 for wildlife shots. You can find these linked in our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.)
What is a GUSS? GUSS is our name for a Towel Animal! It is a childhood memory for Brian that has lived on for years. You can see the home video moment where GUSS was born in Adventure of the Seas Day 6 (We Made the News) and Allure of the Seas Day 3 (Sea Day).
Is that one thing you said serious? Almost certainly not. If you’re new to the channel, we have really dry, sarcastic senses of humor. So if you’re questioning if it’s sarcasm - it probably is.
How do I ask a dinner time question? Leave a comment on any video and let us know it’s supposed to be answered at dinner time. We’re always looking for new questions (even if the next cruise we can answer it on is a long long way out).
Is it really pronounced CoCo “Key”? Royal Caribbean has said itself that it is pronounced “Key” in a FAQ of their own here: creative.rccl..... To each their own on this pronunciation!
When and how did you meet? We met in February of 2020 via a dating app. We answer this question in more detail in our Independence of the Seas Day 2 (Swimming with Pigs) video.
Where did you get XYZ clothing item, Kerry? I do most of my shopping on Amazon and you can find those items linked in our storefront here: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) My sunglasses are a mix of Knockarounds and Blenders. My luggage is Bric's by Ulisse. Those fun flowy pants are from Shein. Other than that, it’s usually TJ Maxx, Kohl’s, JCPenny or Old Navy.

Will Brian ever propose? He finally did on 2/5/2024!

I really enjoyed your live a couple nights ago, I couldn’t comment but wanted to wish you congratulations on your engagement! Now I get a day at sea Im so excited! Love you both from Cleveland Oh. Have a great time

[@Views-And-Queues]

Thank you so much!!

[@michellecollie]

Dinner time question - after watching your ship ranking I’m dying to know - if you could sail on any ship but could not do any extra cost dining, which ship would you choose.

[@jenniferstarkey9243]

Loooking snazzy in the Paging Mr. Morrow shirt!!

[@CruisingIsTherapy]

My wife and I are so happy for you both!!! Congratulations on the engagement!!! Going on a 9 day cruise in June, can’t wait!!!!

[@scottgunerman]

Words of wisdom…having the next adventure on the calendar is such a boost to your mental health IMHO. Having that thing to look forward to makes the daily grind a little easier to get through. Great comment Brian (a.k.a Mr. Nine Dragons👍🏻)

[@ennevtrebor]

my room was 9255 last week. and out my window was one of these "secret" spots! i was above chops grill

[@PeaceLoveRats]

LOVE the paging mr morrow roosevelt!!!!!! 🐾🤩✨

[@hayleeedwards3072]

I was late to a ship once in Cozumel & we didn’t get a golf cart escort. We ran our little hearts out & luckily my bff was recording the whole thing & it sounded like a BASEBALL STADIUM yelling for us, cheering us on! It was insane! Won’t try it again though. 🤣 That 1 really wasn’t our fault. & I cant remember if our names were announced.

[@davidtavakoli5858]

I swear, you guys are my favorite vloggers! Everything you record is what I want to see and do, not to mention that you both have great senses of humor mixed with funny sarcasm. Keep up the great work! ♥

[@brianbrenton1025]

It makes us, (your audience) so very happy to see the natural progression of y'all's relationship. And, Brian, I totally get it. It wasn't a thing you ever had to think about. No consideration was necessary.

[@ccabus]

That's the exact table we sat at for my birthday dinner on allure in January =). love the content and we always enjoy 150 central park

[@amyhenke2417]

I love how when your towel animal isn’t so exciting, you guys make up an inventive animal or story to make it be exciting. 😂

[@DebPeterson-rq4xv]

Looks like a great day! Naps are wonderful! BELT, a new name for a breakfast sandwich! Lol...

[@billangell3387]

Great blog about how YOU like to cruise. For me it would be all about the entertainment starting with Mama Mia then the diving show and finally the skating show and perhaps the comedy club. I understand you have to make reservations when you first get on the ship.

[@logman5755]

My GF and I were on the same cruise for my bday. Saw you all in passing a few times, but didn’t get an opportunity to say hello. This was our first RC cruise and had mixed feelings but interested in trying another RC ship, suggestions? We ate at Chops and were very underwhelmed (guess I was expecting a Palo type restaurant), Sabor was great, we will have to try 150 Central next time. All that aside, we enjoy the content and always look forward to the next video. Cheers!

[@willcooper6980]

I enjoyed 150 Central Park on Oasis. The perfect date night restaurant.

[@Feelinbeachy25]

My husband and I love your channel! We’re always looking out for the next video so we can keep up. I appreciate how you show us around and “take us with you” on your cruises, and appreciate the honesty and great advice. You give just enough detail to help us imagine being on our cruise coming up! Congrats on the engagement! 🎉

[@jcshaves]

My wife and I just arrived safely home from our first cruise vacation. We both loved it. The only bad thing is that it ended. Thankfully we were blessed with beautiful weather and calm seas the entire trip. Thank you very much for your tips, tricks, and advice. It really helped a great deal. My wife would ask me questions and I knew quite a bit of the answers because of the awesome CruiseTube community. Again thanks for all the help and can’t wait to try another. Thanks Kerry and Brian. I waved to you from Port Canaveral (we went to Cocoa Beach) so hope you saw it.

[@JohnGettler]

LOVE YOU GUYS! Your genuine, unscripted, silly true selves is THE MAGIC.

[@deadmeat1240]

I'm so jealous that you got to the secret spot. I tried to find it on Oasis, but I think they have removed the tables and chairs from at least some if not all of those spots overlooking Central Park.

[@DagmarSantiago-ui3ku]

Congratulations on the Engagement! I love your chemistry in the videos. Dinner time question: Did you have to overcome any objections from your families about your engagement because of you intercruise line differences? Carrie's family being Carnival and you all being more Royal? ;-)

[@him5348]

I think if a donut and cheesecake had a baby is the best thing I've ever heard out loud

[@makechangehappen85]

Question of the day: have you guys thought of doing all inclusive resorts (like in Greece, Maldives etc...) would love to see that!

[@marcussaintly-ox8ue]

glad y'all finally got to 150 Central Park! That is one of my favs - especially that delicious bread and chateaubriand!

[@Views-And-Queues]

The bread was sooo good! Can't believe it took us this long to try 150! I can't remember but I think you're one of the people that told us about the legendary fried cheesecake!

[@bethsullivan9731]

You guys are great, my husband and I were surprisely entertained by your videos we watched a few in a row tonight. I can imagine you on a regular show! Best of luck with Hawaii! The new Celebrity ship review was how we found you.

[@LevaOrel]

I’m going on allure in a month and you are giving me so many cool ideas!

[@RandomRecess]

Ooooh rockin the RSVLTS love it! Hope y’all had the best time on Allure, we’ve been enjoying the series!!!

[@sierrak7316]

Thanks for the content! The lobster thermador at 150 is incredible if you enjoy seafood. Also, the croutons at Hyde Park Steakhouse (not a cruise restaurant) are probably the best croutons I’ve ever had! All of their food is amazing. Not sure if there is one in Orlando, but there is one in Daytona Beach.

[@ireneerrico4706]

Wishing you both a lifetime of free cruises and happiness together.🙏👍

[@Suziecooper1485]

DINNER TIME QUESTION: Kerry where do you get your swim suits?

[@David_Canada557]

they have provided a link to their Amazon store front. Look for this at their description link

[@davidwatson5071]

The mattress on wish concierge is by Biscayne Bedding 300 thread count,I’ve watched your Webb cast for a while your both fun and awesome together thank you both and congratulations on engagement 🎉

[@takedownspecialist1767]

I totally forgot about those computer rooms. I’ve been sailing on all the new ships and Allure is a blast from the past 🤣

[@traceyb3913]

The Carnival Conquest was my first ever cruise two years ago. I really enjoyed it. The Carnival Magic was my second cruise last year. Loved them both. Magic was better than the Conquest. Next Fall I am going on my first ever Disney cruise on the Treasure. So stoked for that. In 2026 I am going on the Carnival Mardi Gras. 😊

[@stevenkeithcoulthard706]

I missed your live stream of ranking ships…. I’m devastated… but thrilled this came out, wonderful videos

[@instaoftheseas]

Great video, thanks for keeping us entertained. We love Allure of the Seas!

[@peggieireland391]

You two are too cute. Congrats on your engagement! 🎉 Will you be married on a cruise ship?

[@andreaarmstrong7543]

Congratulations both on your engagement, so happy for you both, with love from NZ😃🥰

[@David-lu8de]

I've been watching you kids for awhile now and I'm ready to go on a Cruze and follow in your foot steps

[@lamareaton]

It looks like you guys ate dinner at1:00 PM! Or maybe you reserved the entire resuturant! Everything so fancy until you see that coke with the Denny's straw in it lol. Congrats to both of you great to know we will be watching you two cruise together for years to come. Keep up the great videos!

[@Youtube_videos987]

Dinner time question!!! When was the food hall of fame made and how did you think of it? Was it on your new years Cruise?

[@jackiem4454]

Howdy from Australia. We are going into our second cruise and can’t wait. Dinner time question for people who are new at cruising, how do you handle the rough seas and have you ever been worried.

[@edouardbeauvais]

I hope you took all that evian with you...

[@nicolekeyes705]

We were on the Allure in March. It was our first cruise, and it was great... but I won't be getting off the ship in Nassau unless we have an excursion booked through Royal. We had a bad experience, lol . I hope that project does happen!

[@forwardlove9390]

That was a magical troll moment ❤✨✨✨

[@rachelmurphy3477]

Excellent PMM shirt!!! 😎

[@Suzanne1027]

Perfect timing on your upload. We are leaving on the Navigator on Friday. You’re getting me excited!

[@Views-And-Queues]

Have a great cruise!!!

[@DJAnube]

You guys are my favorite cruise couple ever.

[@LeeLeeFries]

Love your “Paging Mr. Morrow” shirt with Gracie dog!! Is that a RSVLTS? Soo cool! Love your videos and so excited for you both!! Congratulations on your engagement!!

[@grneal26]

so, when ARE you cruising the new Carnival ships?

[@Views-And-Queues]

haha we don't have any booked, but we will! If anything just to try out this legendary Guy's Burger!

[@stanbentley127]

Great advise. We always have at least 1 cruise booked to look forward to. We currently have 3 booked, our next one is Thanksgiving week on Harmony, then a side-to-side cruise to Alaska summer 2025. You guys have me a little concerned about our choice of Celebrity Solstice as we mostly cruise on Royal.

[@edvaira6891]

According to Matt Hochberg, The Nassau beach club Royal is planning should open in Spring of next year…

[@tanyars3399]

We did a scavenger hunt like that on the Serenade during our Alaskan cruise!

[@DebPeterson-rq4xv]

Nice Haunted Mansion reference!

[@peggieireland391]

Love your red dress. Very pretty

[@DJAnube]

You guys are my vacation at home💕

Awesome Morrow shirt..Congrats on the engagement!

[@MrKarmapolice97]

Love the Paging Mr. Morrow (Nate)shirt!!!

[@NovejSpeed3]

Wow that hidden de k is anawesome protip.....Are those on the other Oasis ships too. Thats the perfect place to bring your dinner and listen to the performances in the park at night! Other Pro tip involving Johny Rockets Breakfast. You can still get their famous milk shakes at Breakfast. They even have a bacon shake!

[@nicoleo3523]

Where are all the THUMBS UP’s?! Loved it! All these views in just a few hours! 🎉

[@marieluz]

Dinnertime question: When you get married, will Kerry become Kerry Carey?? 😂

[@suffi118]

Wondering the same! 😂

[@PatrickWagz]

They said in their livestream a few days ago... that No, she won't use his last name. :(

[@PatrickWagz]

@@suffi118 She said no, she will keep her maiden name.

[@nicwoysch9806]

danke! ich liebe Eure Vlogs 😘

[@tylercampbell6058]

Do you think they waited for people at Nassau because they were on an official Royal Caribbean excursion that had a bus or boat (or similar) issue? I’m guessing they wouldn’t wait for anyone unless they were on an official excursion.

[@clarehagley2165]

American bacon so different to what we have in Australia. I like short cut bacon but not over cooked. I wonder if you can ask for Australian /English Bacon

[@davidwatson5071]

I’m David much happiness to you both

[@2tickets1world]

But ask ahead because not all Johnny rockets does breakfast! We went on... oh either liberty or adventure and they didn't do breakfast at Johnny rockets

[@curseknight5]

My dinner time question is: What is tipping culture like on the ship? Do you tip even when the meal is free? Thank you!

[@LiveInSydney]

BRIAN - As a previous contact lens wearer - I can highly highly HIGHLY recommend laser eye surgery! That fancy 150 Central Park chair reminds me of the chair in Wonderland on Ovation. Bernie in Sydney (ps: In Australia that will cost you about US$2500 for both eyes) PPS: Heading onto Carnival Splendor in two weeks

[@Trevoristhe1]

Do you have plans to take a Westen Mexico Cruise to the Baja Califorina Peninsula?

[@cruisingwithev]

Dinner Time Question: are y’all interested in ever taking a cruise on Virgin Voyages? LOVE Y’ALL!

[@MrsSallyJohnson]

I love your dress. Where did you get it from?

[@lyne-andreedelangis7367]

We just booked of first cruise we are from Québec and my husband speak only french does some of the staff speak french ? Or will i be the interpreter the whole trip hahahaha

[@197chevy]

How do you compare your stateroom to Disney? seems smaller on Allure.

[@EvinMA]

Have you received your engagement ring back? Did you keep it a peridot? Hope all goes well from now on. ☺️

[@dannyeng7316]

Roughly how many cruises do you both take in a year?

[@yerevan54]

Big Chairs, in restaurant like a King and Queen, size.

[@PatrickWagz]

21:26 Where is Michael Scott, when you need him? 🤔

[@marissacafe]

3:08 does anyone else know if this cute Central Park balcony is on all Oasis class ships?

[@2tickets1world]

Yes not a fan of Nassau, it was our first cruise port back in 2016 and I just never enjoyed it. Although when we went on Norwegian with my dad we did the blue lagoon and we enjoyed that

[@taniaM107]

What are the differences between classes?

[@loudinni]

Love you guys. WHERE CAN I GET THAT PMM SHIRT!?!?!?

[@Views-And-Queues]

got it from rsvlts, they sold out super quick but hopefully they restock them!

[@boganpainter1638]

You guys are too tough on the Celebrity Slummit

[@Views-And-Queues]

hahaha i’m gonna steal that 😂

[@NandD_Smithfamily5]

I swear, my husband and I have seen all your vlogs, but we’re both not sure why you mostly choose to stay on the ships when you’re in Nassau, how come ?

[@Views-And-Queues]

almost every cruise we take goes to nassau and after doing a lot of excursions there, we rather spend time onboard

[@2tickets1world]

Since yall have done Royal Up, do you get the bonus points if you Royal up to a suite or no because the original room was not one eligible for double points?

[@Views-And-Queues]

technically you’re not supposed to, but sometimes we get double!
