Creator's Key Takeaways

If you're doing a 3 to five night, you should limit yourself to one check bag and one carry-on per person.

You could only pack up to 50 lbs per bag.

We highly recommend you putting your luggage tag in a plastic tag holder which you can get from our Amazon shop.

You want to make sure that you tip your porters when you arrive at the cruise port.
