Consider These Ideas

You go on a cruise to have a great experience. The best packing tips are to pack to have a good time, and pack light.

But, include at least one dress up outfit.

You will want to dress up for "formal" picture taking and dining.

Depending on the cruise ship, choose formal wear or a dark suite for men and evening wear for women.

Also, when packing casual wear, keep this tip in mind: cruise lines do not allow shorts, tank tops, swim wear and similar clothing in the Dining Room during dinner. Pack the appropriate casual wear for daily dining.

Cruise Packing Tips:

Take with you a carry on overnight bag. Although it rarely happens, sometimes your luggage arrives to your cabin very late or perhaps the next day. (Possibly, but extremely rare, your luggage may not arrive for several days).

In addition, an overnight bag is useful for your last night at sea. The cruise line will ask you to set your luggage outside your cabin for pickup the night before the end of your cruise.

Naturally, you do not want to wake up with everything packed and gone. What a sight!.

More Cruise Packing Tips:

Use the baggage tags provided by the cruise lines. It will help guarantee your bags make it to your cabin.

Consider using "hard shell" luggage to protect contents from damage due to luggage stacked five, ten or fifteen layers deep when trucked from the airport to the cruise ship, and back to the airport.

Take an extra empty piece of luggage if you plan to make purchases. Otherwise, you may not have enough space to pack all your items. Do not forget to take into account the airlines' baggage limitations.

Also, give some thought to insuring your luggage and valuables.

Do not pack medication or other items you may need prior to arriving at your cabin. Once checked, you will not have access again to your luggage until they are delivered to your cabin.

Happy Traveling!
