Cruise mistakes I've made!

Editorial Summary

The creator shares several personal mistakes made during past cruises to help viewers avoid similar issues. One significant error involves booking children in the same cabin as adults in non-suite rooms, which leads to privacy and noise concerns; he now recommends booking connecting rooms instead. He also discusses the challenges of overpacking, noting that while it is difficult to avoid, it creates unnecessary weight and hassle. Regarding personal care, he advises bringing your own shampoo and body wash rather than relying on ship dispensers, and emphasizes the importance of packing extra contact lenses. For travel logistics, he suggests flying into Newark instead of John F. Kennedy airport when sailing from Cape Liberty to avoid heavy traffic. Additionally, he warns against waiting too long to book cruise add-ons like drink packages or cabanas, as prices increase and availability decreases. Finally, he recounts a recent experience where failing to print luggage tags in advance caused significant delays at the port. He concludes by encouraging viewers to share their own cruise mistakes in the comments.
