Creator's Key Takeaways

I think it's very underrated to bring your bathing suit with your carry-on because clearly even though this device has been out there for a while people aren't doing it

I'd much rather or have an extra pair of shoes or a couple of outfits I don't wear then having to constantly be worried about am I gonna have a clean shirt for tomorrow

I just can't convey in words how important it is to use a travel agent because it it's not about just booking a cruise

I would argue having said in many cabins near the elevator lobbies that is not so much of an issue of being woken up or disturbed by people walking by your cabin

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack your bathing suit in your carry-on for embarkation day
Over-pack rather than under-pack to avoid clothing shortages
Use a travel agent to book your cruise for better support
Book a cabin near an elevator for convenience
Bring a laundry hamper to organize dirty clothes
Buy outlet adapters or USB extenders for more charging options
