Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Cruise Like a Pro - Videos.
Avoid the raw bar on day four or later; shellfish may be days old and a norovirus risk.
Skip buffet sushi; the rice is often plain and room temperature, promoting bacteria growth.
Don't use fruit garnishes in drinks; they are often handled without proper handwashing.
Check soft-serve machine nozzles for residue or mold before using.
Avoid chocolate fountains due to recirculation and cross-contamination risks.
Do not turn off airplane mode until you are physically past the port gates and you can see the local carrier name on your screen.
Bring basic medications with you and wait until the next port for non-emergencies.
Check your ship before boarding to see if it has destination elevators.
