Creator's Key Takeaways

alcohol is a huge Money Maker for cruise lines and if they allow you to bring unlimited wine and spirits on board their profits would take a hit

you do not want to risk being denied boarding but by bringing along your drugs that would put an end to your vacation before it even began

both of these items are deemed as a fire hazard and they are prohibited on cruise ships

you can take the ship's towel with you just make sure that you remember to bring it back and return it as your onboard account will be charged if you forget

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring wrinkle release spray instead of clothing irons or steamers
Purchase a non-surge power strip that is cruise compliant instead of extension cords
Use the cruise ship's complimentary coffee and tea offerings instead of bringing a coffee maker or kettle
Check your cruise line's mobile app for dining venue hours instead of bringing cooking appliances
