Creator's Key Takeaways

make sure that your boss knows exactly when you're going to be gone and that the time is on the workplace calendar

you want to make sure that your passports are not anywhere close to expiring for what we call a closed loop cruise

this is also a great time to start researching your hotel and book as soon as you can

don't forget about the air to see program that most of the cruise lines have that guarantees that you will make the ship

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ensure your time off is approved and on the workplace calendar
Check passport expiration for closed-loop cruises and renew if needed
Research and book hotels in port cities early using Tripadvisor or Facebook groups
Consider booking flights early and use the cruise line's air-to-sea program
Reserve a pet sitter early and check for sales on cruise planner items
