Chair hogs are one of the things that annoys many cruise passengers. Although most cruise lines have a 30-minute grace period for leaving a lounger unused and your belongings on it, lots of cruisers ignore this. Hogging the lounger in prime locations for most of the day while they are off doing other things. I provide 9 ways that you can deal with cruise chair hogs based on things I do, know other cruise passengers do and have seen work. Find out what they are, and use them to deal with cruise chair hogs using loungers you want to use on your future cruises.
