CRUISING TIPS & TRICKS

Fly down the night before to ensure you arrive on time. Flights get cancelled and delayed all the time.

Join a facebook group for your cruise ship. There are always other travelers asking questions and sharing tips and suggestions from their own experiences

Pack your bathing suit and any items you'll want when you first board the ship in your carry-on

Skip the buffet on embarkation day. It is usually quite crowded, so I recommend heading to a secondary option.

Keep your phone in airplane mode. Be sure to double check with the DCL about their internet packages and policies Download the DCL app. This will be a fantastic resource for what's happening on the ship as well as information prior to your departure.
