4 Things to Do Before You Leave for Your Cruise!! 🚢✨ Before you leave home, do THESE things — or you’ll start your cruise stressed. 1️⃣ Check in early. It locks in your boarding time and keeps you from waiting hours at the terminal. 2️⃣ Confirm your dining time and bed setup. Whether you want early seating or the beds pushed together, fix it before you sail — it’s easier than begging guest services later. 3️⃣ Print your boarding pass. The app might crash, your phone might die, or Wi-Fi might vanish. Paper never fails. 4️⃣ Print your luggage tags. Attach them before you get to port so your bags go straight to your cabin instead of disappearing into the luggage abyss. A smooth cruise starts before embarkation day — do these four things and you’ll be sipping your first drink while everyone else is still hunting for their luggage.
