Creator's Key Takeaways

I've worked in the industry for over a decade and I've been on over 20 cruises myself

what happens on the first day of your cruise is after you bring your luggage to the cruise Porter's they're gonna take your luggage away but you're gonna have a good few hours until your luggage is delivered to your stateroom

we get burned more on a cruise ship than we do even when we're on the beach

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Keep passports and government ID on your person, not in checked luggage
✓Pack bathing suits, flip-flops, and cover-ups for pool time on embarkation day
✓Bring prescription medications and pain relievers in your carry-on
✓Keep all jewelry and valuables with you rather than in checked bags
✓Pack toiletries for refreshing before evening if luggage is delayed
✓Bring wine or champagne in your carry-on, not checked luggage
