Creator's Key Takeaways

Even with a beverage package, those mini bar snacks and drinks are not covered.

No smoking in your cabin. Period. That means absolutely nothing. No smoke, no exceptions.

Never, and I mean never, open your cabin door and balcony door at the same time.

CBD oil and other CBD products are a big no no on most cruise ships.

✓Never smoke in your cabin or on the balcony.
✓Do not open both the cabin and balcony doors simultaneously.
✓Never sit, stand, or lean on the balcony railing.
✓Tip your cabin attendant and show respect for their work.
✓Use the do not disturb and makeup room signs appropriately.
