Things You Should NEVER TRUST on Your Cruise

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a guide on several aspects of cruising that travelers should not take for granted to ensure a better experience. First, he advises against trusting the listed cruise end time for booking flights, noting that port clearance and luggage logistics often cause delays. He suggests booking flights no earlier than noon. Second, he recommends testing all cabin amenities, such as plumbing and air conditioning, immediately upon arrival to report any maintenance issues early. Third, he warns that shore excursions may not run on schedule due to various variables and suggests returning to the ship at least two hours before the all aboard time. Fourth, the creator cautions against relying solely on online reviews, explaining that they are often written by a small, non-representative subset of passengers with extreme opinions. Fifth, he advises against flying on the same day as a cruise departure to avoid missing the ship due to travel delays. Finally, he emphasizes the importance of being flexible, suggesting that travelers should adapt to unexpected changes or minor inconveniences rather than letting them ruin the trip.
