Creator's Key Takeaways

one downside about cruising from New Orleans is that many onboard amenities on the cruise ship are not available until the ship makes it out to the Gulf of Mexico

I'm not sure if you're familiar with the Mississippi or not but it is far from beautiful blue water some call the mighty Mississippi but I call it the muddy Mississippi

the last time that we sailed from New Orleans a majority of the trip down the river you couldn't really see anything outside of our balcony and the fog horn was blowing the entire time

New Orleans is not our favorite port to sail from the nighttime party scene is a bit too much for us as a family

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Fly in the day before your cruise to avoid airline issues
✓Book parking in advance, especially for Norwegian and Royal Caribbean ships
✓Try beignets and explore the French Quarter for local food and culture
✓Consider staying at a hotel with a shuttle to save on transportation costs

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Casino not available on embarkation day — Get your casino fix by grabbing a room at Caesar's in New Orleans before the cruise
Flying in the morning of the cruise is risky — Fly in the day before or a few days early to avoid stress and enjoy the city
