Here is another tip for when you choose a private tour as you get off the ship. Take a picture of your group including the guide, vehicle and license plate. Then send this off to someone you know. If there are ever any issues you would have proof of who you were with.

And a good general rule when traveling is always take photographs of all of your luggage including your hand luggage before you leave your house. It’s helpful if the airlines or cruise lines lose or can’t find your bags.

Always take a hard copy of the original booking confirmation after making your initial deposit which shows fine print, on a recent Princess cruise they changed the entitlement of two free specialty dining experiences per stateroom to one per person. I was the single occupant of my cabin so got 2 free specialty dining but only because I could present my original confirmation at the pursers desk and they reluctantly took one dining surcharge off my bill

More cruise lines have night lights in their bathrooms, but for those who don't have them, a battery powered tea light candle makes a great night light, and two or three of them can add something special to a room service dinner. Participating in games onboard can help pass the time on long stretches of sea days if you are so inclined, and can be cashed in for some fun swag at the end of the voyage.

I rarely get lost on ships and here is why: I always print out a copy of the deck plan a couple of weeks before the cruise. I then familiarize myself with it a little before the cruise. During the cruise, I carry it with me and refer to it often. By the third day, I pretty much know where everything is.

I would add using stock ownership promotions. I own a few thousand in Carnival stock in one of my retirement accounts and they give me up to $250 onboard spend each time I cruise for just owning the stock. As far as sitting through art auctions, sales talks or other similar situations I’ll pass - I’m on vacation and spending hours to get advertised to is a very poor use of my time. Ask yourself, if you were at home would you go out somewhere and watch some promotion for a cheap bangle or charm? If the answer is no, then why on earth would you do so during a vacation?

Proof, once again, that common sense isn't all that common.

I found on line a portable laundry line with built in hanging clips and it works great. Each end has attach hooks to I either do my laundry in the sink or I through it into the shower when I'm taking a shower. As it's a bit time consuming, I do it every other day so the amount is small. You can also order small packets of laundry soap on line - that are generally smaller than the ones in stores, or sometime I just use the provided shampoo. We went for a full month with a small carry on suitcase and a back pack and never ran out of clothes. Having clothes that are fast drying is important and if they are not fast drying, I would only do laundry when we were at one place for two days or more - which is no problem on a cruise.

We sailed with friends on Celebrity Eclipse a while back and they were always getting lost, primarily because they did not know whether they were going towards the front or stern of the ship. We asked them why they didn't just look out of a window (or their balcony) and this left them a little befuddled until we told them that ships always sail forward so you just needed to look at the sea!

I have never in my life been lost, but I acknowledge that I am very lucky to have a very strong sense of direction, and can easily orient myself. That having been said, I foresee telling others about the numbers because it seems like every cruise I go on, one of my friends or a fellow passenger is hopelessly lost, and I’m too nice to just leave people wandering around, which really cuts into the amount of time I have to be eating my own body weight in pizza.

Yes, I'm much like you. It's kind of uncanny--I can go to a new city and instinctively find the street or address I'm looking for. However, I've traveled with folks who don't know their left from the right (true story), so telling them to turn left is a meaningless direction. Telling them to follow the fish is much more reliable.

I love the number trick. I always look at the carpets. There is usually a clue there. Thanks for the status match-I will definitely do this. My tip is know your spending budget. I load my pre-paid Visa conversion card prior to the cruise with X amount. The conversion card is just what is sounds like. It will convert your dollars into about 30 currencies and acts like a debit card. I was recently in Europe at the Christmas Markets where I converted my $ into Euros. Flying home I needed to go through Heathrow so I simply went into the app and converted the Eros into Pounds. The best thing , by using this card I do not get charged any Foreign transaction fees! I also arrive home and know that there will be no credit card charges awaiting me.

Just came off the HAL Oosterdam. For directions on the ship, the carpet (in halls) next to elevators have a ship outline in the carpet, showing the way to the front. Saving money or rather getting a four-star rating has many perks. But found out if you buy Stock in HAL, you get a lot of extra perks, and adds to your rating. Four start gets you FREE laundry. And on our 22 day cruise, that helped.

Take 2 credit cards. One with a higher limit and one with a lower limit. Use the higher one for on board purchases and lock it away in the cabin safe. Use the lower one for on shore purchases. If there is fraud or an overcharge, it will be easy to detect. Plus let's say, the lower card has a 1k limit. If there is fraud that's the most they will get. Whereas if it had a 5k limit, now you might have a problem. Plus it's a good idea anyway in case you spend a little too much on board. You always have that second card to settle up.

That's an idea we've thought about but not yet actually tried. For about $20 for a full bag of washing (with HAL I think) it's a good deal, particularly as you don't need the amount of luggage from home. It also means, if you are on a fly cruise, you can get straight off the aircraft without waiting at the carousel. Finally, no chance of your luggage getting lost.

The laundry feature is one of the great advantages of the QM2. All self-service laundry machines--and the corresponding detergent--is free. One important tip, though--if you're on the QM2 on a sailing where other passengers can embark part-way through your voyage, never plan to do your laundry on a day when others can be embarking. I've found that a lot of folks will spend days or weeks exploring an area (Europe, for example), then take the ship to finish their holiday.....No judgment there, but they'll have accumulated a lot of dirty laundry, and many will be heading directly to the laundry rooms.

I was wondering why the cruise lines play silly games like not listing port and starboard on the already-present signs, not indicating the bow direction, making you guess what the triangles, fish, and carpet colors mean, etc. when I realized: it's part of their entertainment package - a free guessing game for passengers!

Try cruising a Holland America ship. By each elevator bank is a ship diagram with bow and stern indicated with a plan view of the deck shown. Also a side elevation showing the decks of the ship and locations of restaurants, bars and the like. And there is a complete listing of destinations and what deck they are located on. When you get on an elevator, look down and the day of the week is shown on the carpet. I won’t say you have to be blind to get lost on a HAL ship, as they even have braille on each cabin door number plaque. No swimming fish on the carpet, just common sense directions posted where needed.

We're targeting platinum on NCL (not there yet and none of the lower statuses offer us anything we'll use really). One of the main perks we'd like to have when we get there is free laundry. At present what we do is simply hand wash clothes in our sink and hang them up in the cabin. We switch off the air con when we leave and in the sort of climates we're usually in things dry relatively quickly. That'll do us until platinum!

I have cruised the most with Holland America and typically one side the cabin numbers are even and the other side has odd numbered cabins. Recently I traveled on Royal Caribbean’s Vision of the Seas and they numbered the cabins a different way- outside cabins such as ocean view and balconies were even numbers and all inside cabins have odd numbers. It took me several days to figure that out. I typically put magnets and ribbons on my cabin door to help find my cabin. Sometimes I have put a magnet or ribbons by the elevator to indicate which corridor I should go down. Other people figured it out and I’d hear them say- here is the ribbon, we need to go down this corridor.

If you don't buy the drinks package but you want a glass of wine with dinner, you can purchase a bottle in the MDR, and they will cellar the unused portion of the bottle and have it waiting for you for your next dinner, eg.$77/bottle holding 7 drinks or $17/glass = saving $42. We ended up with a very nice bottle that lasted us three nights.

Another directional tip: which way do the lifts/elevators face? On Princess, all ships except the two oldest ones (Coral and Island Princess) all lifts face forward so, as soon as you step off the lift, you are facing the bow. Only exception: the 2 panoramic lifts in the atrium midships which face the stern.

One thing I've noticed on almost every ship I've been on is that the women's bathrooms are on the port side, while the men's bathrooms are on the starboard side. The code is PORT / LEFT / LADY (all four letter words).

Some good ideas here. One additional (which others are also mentioning), is that if you have 100 shares in Norwegian or the Carnival group then you can get on board credit. At the time of writing this comment shares are US $15.12 [Carnival] and $16.29 [NCL] per share. Of course, you should research whether or not they are a good investment for you. Regarding the free drinks etc at port talks and art auctions; the price you pay is that you are giving up time on your cruise (and possibly ashore) so that has to be balanced against the possible benefits.

Disney ships also have carpet signals for direction an to let you know which side of the ship you are on. I can no longer claim to have been on all their ships, but look for things like red carpet on starboard and blue on port,. My biggest hint when going on a new cruise line is to spend some time on You Tube and various social media sites to learn the quirks of that line. It is great to know how cruise ships usually work, but if you don't know the details of your line and ship, you'll miss potential goodies,

True--unless you're a heavy drinker, the drinks package is rarely a value. However, since most packages also include other beverages (such as specialty coffees, juices, bottled water, and so on) along with the inclusion of tips, it can be a great convenience. For me, I still spend more money on the drinks package than I would have had I bought all of those things individually, but I figure if I come within a couple dollars at the end, the convenience makes it worthwhile. But I also recognize that everyone's financial circumstances are different, and saving $50 may be far ore valuable to some than the daily convenience, so each traveler needs to know their own circumstances and priorities.

You need not be a heavy drinker. Bottled water inclbsparkling, softdrinks and coffees (real coffee) and real juices can also be included in sdditions to beer, wine, cocktails, spitits and all sodas. Often as little as 4-5 drinks per person per day spanning morning, lunch, afternoon, dinner and evening isnt so difficult. In the med each day we took two cold waters with us each day

@@paulgerrard9227 Agreed. On my last cruise, we managed quite well without the drinks package, finding free brewed coffee (though not specialty coffee) in a couple of places on board as well as access to soft drinks and juices in the buffet area. So for travelers worried about budget, it's possible to easily get by without the package. However, as you say, with the package, I'm much more likely to have that mid-afternoon latte as well as some soft drinks and bottled waters throughout the day.

Bring some beer, soda, water, wine, if allowed. Bring a folding, lightweight bike for port sightseeing, if allowed (great for Bermuda). Bring your own popup sun enclosure for the beach, if allowed (mine fits in a carry-on and is large enough for 2 when open). Bring a camel-pack for water when sightseeing, if allowed. Unless you are a real pro, your phone camera will be fine for most people. Many ports have a public library or public community centre within walking distance with nice facilities and free wi-fi. Many hotels close to port locations may be hosting special events that you can attend if you simply ask in advance. I have received complimentary grounds and pool use at several of them.

Ahahahaha beware of status matching!!! MSC matched our status for the first cruise but then on our second cruise - and we admit we did not, as usual, read the fine print - would not, under any circumstances continue to give us our previous NCL status because we were 2 or 3 days out from the rule that the booking has to be 109 days out prior to sailing. No way would they make an exception even for good customer service. So, lesson learned: cruiselines will offer status match to hook you but it's not an ongoing certainty. 😢😊

So if one is a Diamond on RC that level will be always available even if the cruiser doesn’t take their cruise for xx time frame (level is good until person’s death) whereas after not taking an MSc cruise after 3 years, loyalty disappears whether “earned” or “inherented” from some other cruises’ loyalty!
