Creator's Key Takeaways

I would go to princess.com and make myself an account when you go to and I would do that no matter what cruise line I was booked on

excursions do sell sell out sometimes and it depends on the popularity of it but sometimes they can sell out quite a bit before it's time for your cruise to go

I would say come in the night before now sometimes we get in late the night before because if we have work the day before and then um we're going to fly where we're going

when you get on board take a minute walk around see everything you don't want on your last day of the cruise to find out something that was there that you would have been enjoying the whole time

Creator's Tips & Advice

Download the Princess app and familiarize yourself with it before your cruise
Order your Medallion early and decide whether to have it shipped or pick it up at the port
Book excursions early to avoid sell-outs, and consider ship-sponsored excursions for late return protection
Come to the departure port the night before to avoid flight delay issues
Pack comfortable clothes and remember smart casual for evening dining
