Creator's Key Takeaways

We've been on over 40 cruises, but there's something special about packing for maiden voyage and for an NCL cruise.

The NCL Free at Sea program does not include covering bottled water. So, it is a specially important that you bring your own water bottles.

I always take on any cruise are some magnetic hooks and magnetic clips. These are great for sticking stuff on the wall.

We use a tremendous amount of things between your iPhone, iPad, cameras, etc. Even before we started vlogging.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring your own water bottles as NCL's Free at Sea program does not cover bottled water.
Use magnetic hooks and clips to organize your cabin and keep the desk clean.
Pack a six-way USB charger and a European plug adapter for electronics.
Carry medications, jewelry, money, and expensive items in your carry-on bag.
Bring passports in your carry-on for easy boarding and to avoid nightmares.
