Creator's Key Takeaways

That mini bar in your cabin, it's a luxury price trap.

Think lighting up just one cigarette won't hurt? Think again.

The railing, not a seat, not a footrest, and definitely not a place to lean back for that perfect selfie.

Treat them with respect, a warm smile, a quick thank you, a bit of tidying up before you leave the room.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Skip the mini bar to avoid surprise fees; use buffet, pool drinks, or room service.
Never smoke in your cabin or on your balcony; use designated smoking areas.
Don't hang decorations with sticky hooks; bring items that leave no trace.
Leave bathrobes in the cabin; they are not free souvenirs.
Open one door at a time on balcony cabins to avoid wind tunnels.
Never lean on balcony railings; keep both feet on the deck.
