Creator's Key Takeaways
Do not travel to your cruise the same day as it flights get delayed or cancelled. Traffic jams happen. People forget travel documents at Starbucks.
Your carry-on is your day one survival lifeline. Passports, boarding docks, meds, chargers, sunscreen, swimwear, valuables.
Cruise luggage tags rip off faster than your willpower at the dessert bar. Tag your bags securely and toss an air tag inside.
Embarcation Sunburn, the official tattoo of rookie cruisers. You'll spend hours on the open deck watching sail away.
