Things to do when cruising
It's important to:
Pace yourself don't burn yourself out by eating and drinking too much
Don't make a fool of yourself when you have the drinks package by consuming too much alcohol and misbehaving
Make sure your phone is on airplane mode the last thing you want to do is come home to a large roaming expense from your telecommunications company
To be the first person in the pool to make sure that your swimming attire is in your carry-on
Not everything is included in your cruise fare. There are some additional costs for example the photos the spa the Casino Bingo even some of the food tasting and wine tasting come at an additional fee
Both the buffet and the main dining room are included in your cruise fare
There is also a limited amount of drinks such as water and lemonade and standard tea and coffee may not be to the taste of some people but it is included in your cruise fare
If you want to do shore excursions pay them incrementally by booking them once the check-in process or the portal is open
You can book and pay for each Excursion and then you can spread the cost of it over the few weeks before you board
Some cruises cross datelines so it's really important that your phone or however you are keeping time is matched with the shipboard time
Where you're on a port Excursion and the time is wrong and you get back to the port and the ship has already sailed
Don't forget that gratuities are also something to add to your fare Not all gratuities are included sometimes gratuities are included in things like Spa costs has a gratuity included so you don't have to do additional tip drinks packages also have a gratuity included so you don't always have to do an additional tip but you can do if you want I always tip my cabin Steward about five Australian dollars per day if he's done an exceptional job I'll give him a little bit extra but that is just what I choose to do anybody you can choose to do what you want to do
It doesn't matter which Port you're in world biosecurity is always you do not take any food products any drinks any coffees with milk off the boat. There is going to be signage as you are going on the gangway to not take any food products or milk eggs cheese bread meat. Biosecurity in every nation is really really important so don't take anything off the ship.
