Staff Tips
- Astrid BellCruise Product Manager
For the first day of your cruise, pack a small carry-on bag with your travel documents, a change of clothes, swimsuit, exercise clothes and any medications you may need. That way you don't have to wait for your checked bags to arrive in your stateroom.
Amanda O'BrienPersonal Travel PlannerGet to know the staff early in the cruise. They can give you some wonderful inside information regarding the ports of call, excursions, activities, and so on.
Kristin SkinnerPersonal Travel PlannerIt’s always worth having a small amount of local currency for immediate expenses on arrival at your destination and for any purchases you make at your ports of call. We also recommend you carry a major credit or charge card (American Express®, MasterCard® or Visa®), or sufficient funds in U.S.$ travellers cheques which can be cashed on board.
