CRUISE TIP #25 DO YOU NEED TO BOOK ENTERTAINMENT AHEAD OF TIME. Many cruise lines have entertainment on a first come first served basis. However if you go on some of the mega cruise ships you will need to make a reservation once on the ship otherwise it may be full or you have to wait in the standby line for any remaining seats.
