please don't be that person to come in on the day of of your cruise we always recommend to come in the day for because so much could happen on your way to your cruise

you are able to bring on some beverages before you even get into it can I bring some beer liquor no what I'm talking about is you can bring 1 750 ml bottle of wine per adult on board with you

prepay your cities man M yes prepay the cities because if you don't rural Caribbean will charge you your cities per day and that amount is I'm going to look down because I don't want to mess that's the amount up which is going to be $20.50 per person for sweets
