Creator's Key Takeaways

Continental breakfast is usually free on most cruise lines, but order lunch or late night snack, and you're easily paying $5 to $10 more in delivery fees per order.

Most cruise lines let you bring a bottle or two on board sounds great until you try to drink that bottle of wine at dinner. Then there's the $15 to $25 corkage fee per bottle.

They're automatically added to your bill and cost between $15 and $20 per person per day. For a couple on a 7-day cruise, that's $250 plus.

Forget to return your pool towel and you could be paying $25 per towel.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Enjoy brought-on wine in your room to avoid corkage fees.
βœ“Budget for automatic gratuities of $15-$20 per person per day.
βœ“Return pool towels to avoid $25 per towel charges.
βœ“Stick to free regular coffee to avoid $5-$6 specialty coffee costs.
