Creator's Key Takeaways

Some of it can leave passengers feeling sluggish, bloated, or even sick. And no one wants to spend their holiday in a cabin bathroom.

The problem lies in how many people touch those same bottles throughout the day. Cruise ships have strict hygiene rules and hand sanitizing stations are placed outside every buffet area.

In some destinations, the tap water might look clean, but it doesn't always meet the same purification standards. Even trace amounts of unfamiliar bacteria or contaminants can cause gastrointestinal upset.

By the time they're scooped onto a plate, the texture can be rubbery and the flavor, well, let's just say it's not winning any awards.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Avoid communal condiments to minimize germ exposure.

✓Use designated ship water stations or bottled water instead of port tap water.

✓Choose made-to-order omelets over buffet scrambled eggs for better quality and safety.

✓Skip buffet sushi in favor of specialty restaurants where seafood is made to order.

✓Be cautious with lukewarm shellfish served in buffet spreads.
