Creator's Key Takeaways

I rather bring it and not need it than not bring it and need it.

I rather spend more money in a hotel than have to spend a lot more money catching up to the ship at the next port call

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Always carry a passport book rather than just a passport card or birth certificate.
✓Ensure your passport has at least six months of validity remaining upon your return.
✓Fly into your cruise port at least one or two days early to avoid missing the ship due to flight delays.
✓When booking independent excursions, aim to be back at the pier two hours before the ship's departure time.
✓Use a multi-plug/USB hub to manage limited power outlets in cruise staterooms.
