note pads for doors and walkie talkies to communicate with your friends and family when your cell phones don’t work at sea.a few sweaters for when it gets a little chilly at night.zip-lock bags for keeping your stuff organized and dry when you’re at the pool or on shore at the beach.

While I included a few packing tips above, here are few more things I recommend bringing to make your vacation even more awesome:
Cruise card lanyard free#
Be sure to get their coffee card to get a stamp with each purchase toward a free beverage. If you forget your coffee mug, don’t worry, they have a coffee shop on board with specialty coffees too. Bring your own water bottle and travel coffee mug to take advantage of the unlimited refills and to make it easy to walk around the ship without spilling your beverage. In the Marketplace on board the ship you’ll find a filtered water machine as well as a coffee, tea, and hot chocolate available 24 hours a day to keep you hydrated and caffeinated. Pack A Water Bottle And Travel Coffee Mug But they’re typically priced at a premium since you’re at sea ($5 for White Rain, $14 for Pantene) and not a deal like the items you find in the Duty Free shop. They do have some sundries in the gift shop (including conditioner) if you forget anything at home. The ocean wind, sun, and salt water all take a toll on long locks, so I ran out of my 3 ounce conditioner on the third day. While this tip might just be for the ladies, I have to say, the one thing I wish I had more of was extra hair conditioner. There are no 3 ounce liquid restrictions on a cruise like there are when flying (though, if you’re flying in for your cruise, you’ll have to put these in your checked luggage).
Cruise card lanyard license#
We brought a hole punch for ours, but after cruising I discovered it would be better to have a lanyard with one of those clear plastic pouches so that way you can add your driver’s license too for ID when getting on and off the ship in ports. It’s useful for carrying your Sail & Sign card when you’re walking around the ship. Everything from sporty ones to blingy ones. You know all those of those lanyards you get at conventions and meetings that you don’t know what to do with? Bring one on your cruise! Even if you don’t have a lanyard at home, they sell them on board in the gift shop. If you’re headed out on a cruise soon, here’s are some helpful tips for packing and planning to make the most out of your vacation. I just got back from a Carnival cruise and have a whole list of notes of things I want to remember to bring next time, as well as a few things I brought along that I now know I can’t live without.
