Ideas On Board A Cruise Ship

By Poppy Hill


Planning a cruise trip with your family or partner and are unsure of what to expect on your first ever trip. The following are just a few suggestions to improve your stay.

The cruise ships are all on the big side with many of them carrying sometimes up to three thousand people on board at any one time. As there are decks and you will be unsure where anything is on board a good idea would be to ask the crew member if they have a map of the ship to become accustomed to and become used to all the noise and floors and decks. This may take a couple of days but don't worry as you will learn fast.

Making sure you have a small bag with you when you board your ship is a must as your luggage will not reach your room for a few hours leaving you ample time to explore the boat. By packing a few essentials you will be ready to explore and possibly stop off at the pool before finding your room.

Passengers from previous trips have suggested leaving expensive jewellery in your house and taking just a few simple inexpensive pieces with you to prevent them from getting lost or going missing.

Walk around the ship all the time. This is not only good exercise but a fun way to have a look at your ship and what is on board and where everything is situated. This gives you the best way to familiarise yourself with all the entertainment on board and where the best hang outs are for you.

Tipping is normally around 10% of your bill. While on a cruise ship tip generously as often the crew are not well paid and appreciate any tips that are given to them.

Last thing at night passengers are encouraged to move around their quarters or back from any show to be as quiet as they can and keep in mind any passengers who may be sleeping while you are on your way back to your cabin.

Make the most of you holiday by forward planning and taking advantage of the beautiful cities you will be able to visit.
