Cruise Travel-

Everyone loves Cruise Travel. Cruising has the ability to totally change someone’s perspective on
vacationing. It raises your standard of adventure and of scenic beauty. It increases your sense of
adventure and passion for turquoise blue waters and white sandy beaches.

If it’s your first time on a cruise, then for your help we’ve listed down a few factors to keep in mind so that you can enjoy your Cruise Travel vacation.

1) What to wear during Cruise Travel –

By and far, this is the most important question people have on their minds. We’ll advise you to first check your itinerary to see how many formal nights you’ll have. Men can wear a suit or tux, but they can also get away with slacks and a button-down shirt and tie.

Women can wear a nice dress or they may choose to wear a gown fit for prom. Dinner in the formal dining room is business casual with the exception of formal night. Pretty much anything goes except for shorts, sandals, and tank tops.

2) How do I get the best deal on a cruise –

Sign up for your favorite travel agents’ newsletter. Most cruise lines have special sales, as well as offer discounts for previous guests, state residents, military personnel, and special affiliations that should be mentioned in the
newsletter provided by your travel agent.

Once you subscribe, you’ll receive notifications whenever there is a special sale happening and you’ll never miss the opportunity to save on that cruise you’ve been daydreaming about.

3) What happens during an emergency –

Most cruise lines will allow you to get off the ship at a port of call to catch a flight in case of emergency but you must have your passport and photo ID – you can’t do this if you only have a birth certificate. Just keep in mind, that you must notify
Guest Services within the first 24 hours of the cruise and you can only get off the ship at a
port of call, never at sea.

4) How do you prevent motion sickness –

This is probably one of the most common questions with regards to cruising. Do you know if you wear Sea-Bands, little elastics on your wrists, then they press against your pressure points and help keep seasickness at bay?

You can also bring along over-the-shelf medicines that will help prevent motion sickness.

5) How to understand what’s included in the cruise –

This varies depending on the cruise line and the best person to inform you and give you all the details would be your travel agent. Most cruise lines offer all meals in the casual dining spaces and dining rooms, musical shows,
club entrances, karaoke, and pool area for the price of your cruise.

Many cruise lines offer upgraded dining options in specialty restaurants, spa services, and some fun extras like
martini classes or dance lessons. Getting off the ship at the port of call is always free of course, but if you’d like to take an organized shore excursion, there is always an additional fee.

You can get in touch with your travel agent for all additional details regarding your cruise.

These were just a few factors to keep in mind while planning a cruise vacation. If you are
