[@deidresmith9698]

I most certainly agree!!! I prepay for EVERYTHING I CAN . Gratuities. Excursions. WiFi. Case of water n so on

[@MrTraveler74]

And you know this!!! 😎

My 1st mistake I made flying in the same day. 😮After my 3rd cruise I started flying in the day before. I pack with packing cubes on every trip. Nice and neat in my carry on suitcase.

[@MrTraveler74]

That same day will wear you out!

[@stevebartley628]

The time to select specialty dinner times and shore excursions MAY BE EARLIER than check-in time.

[@MrTraveler74]

This is true!

I've cruised 6 times and still feel like a newbie. You guys inspired me to book my first cruise back in 2017! Unless you have a secondary option to possibly drive, avoid flying in the morning of. Eat the cost of the hotel for a night over losing the cost of your trip. I reserve one credit card for purchases for the trip, bring about $100 per port for the places that do cash discounts and tips for the bag handlers. And yes, try all the food, dont make your bed, and take all the pics

[@MrTraveler74]

You don’t sound like a newbie! 😅

[@deidresmith9698]

They inspired me also!!!❤❤❤❤

[@deidresmith9698]

And whn bringing cash Small Bills . It makes for better negotiating

[@cutnpaper6831]

Yep I do all 10! Stress free

[@stevebartley628]

Depending on where you are flying from, fly in at least TWO DAYS BEFORE. Flying from Colorado - in winter or fall ( or spring ! ) there might be a snowstorm,. In spring and summer there could be a severe hail/thunderstorm

[@MrTraveler74]

We agree!

You guys bring so much good Information over the years. I don't see why your subscriber base isn't higher.

[@MrTraveler74]

We weren’t consistent which we are working on now. But you’re correct we should be way down the road. Thanks for the support!

Pack AIR FRESHENER. I also get those air wick bathroom freshners Incase the bathroom has an odor

[@MrTraveler74]

Great tip

[@stevebartley628]

Cruiseport parking may need to be reserved ahead of time. We pulled into the port in Vancouver, Canada only to find out there was no space. We had to search all over the city to find a secure long term parking space.

[@MrTraveler74]

Wow that’s stressful!

[@deidresmith9698]

Yes Elle Yes . New packing video. I try not to over pack BUTTTTTT lol😂

[@deidresmith9698]

My tip is CHK INTO YOUR CRUISE AFTER 1PM .. the ship doesn't set sail until 430pm.. and rms aren't ready until 1/130pm ... I dnt go chk in until my cabin is ready so i can put my stuff dwn

[@MrTraveler74]
