Creator's Key Takeaways

I've only got 5 minutes so I'm going to go fast today I'm talking all about packing for your cruise

first you have so many different scenarios that you have to pack for on a cruise you're hanging out by the pool in a swimsuit then you're dressing up for dinner

the first tip is to know that there is no reasonable limit as to to how much you can bring on your trip if you want to pack a couple of large suitcases that's perfectly fine

now you aren't allowed to pack beer or liquor on most Cruise Lines the ships prefer that you buy their drinks on board one exception is that all the major Lin let you bring on at least one bottle of wine or champagne

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Pack a carry-on bag with essentials for the first day, including a change of clothes, boarding documents, medications, and passport or birth certificate.
✓Bring an outlet adapter if sailing on an older ship to have more places to plug in devices.
✓Pack a small bottle of wrinkle release spray since cruise cabins don't have irons.
✓Take advantage of the policy allowing at least one bottle of wine or champagne per adult passenger or per cabin.
