Creator's Key Takeaways

make sure that that is on you if you don't um carry a carry-on just make sure you put it in a folder somewhere where it's safe

you are able to bring on a 750 milliliter bottle of wine not the big one

do not bring no iron or no Steamers with you on board

don't skip the E muster now that can get you kicked off the ship for sure

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Keep travel documents in your carry-on, not checked luggage.
✓Bring wine in your carry-on; it will be thrown away if in checked luggage.
✓Do not bring irons or steamers; use laundry services or wrinkle-release spray.
✓Attend the muster drill immediately after boarding.
✓Do not smoke on your balcony; use designated smoking areas.
✓Use cash or credit cards in port, not debit cards, to avoid fraud.
