Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm so used to sailing with Princess and you have the the The Wristband and The Medallion and it's on you all the time right

don't overpack that's right Angelina my niece I'm looking at you I say this to her every time time we go on a cruise together

always have that with you on your carry-on however don't forget to pack little things that you might need as well

never carry your actual passport with you I recently went on a cruise and we were lined up to get back on the ship and I saw this family with four kids and they had six passports with them

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Always bring your lanyard with your key card and hook it on the door knob to avoid forgetting it.
✓Use an old credit card instead of your room key in the electricity slot to avoid losing it.
✓Don't overpack; pack only what you need and use laundry on board if necessary.
✓Put medication in your carry-on and pack small over-the-counter medications you might need.
✓Book entertainment, dining, and chef table reservations as soon as you get on the ship.
✓Put your phone on airplane mode to avoid roaming charges.
