How To
How do you plan your first Cruise?
Planning a cruise can be like planning any trip. There are so many things to consider: where should you go, what activities should you include, how much money to spend, etc. However, if you're new to cruising, there are some key differences when planning your first cruise. You won't want anything to miss because cruises are typically longer than land vacations (upto 3 weeks). These tips will help you make your cruise even more enjoyable.
-
Start early. Book your cruise at least six months in advance. This will allow you to get amazing deals and avoid the crowds. Also, you'll have plenty time to research your ship, itinerary, ports and activities. You might even find a discount on your airfare!
-
You can choose a destination. There are many reasons that people love to cruising to other destinations. Some love to travel while others prefer to relax and unwind on the boat. No matter what boat you are on, it is important to remember the type of destination that you wish to visit. A popular choice is a Caribbean island, followed closely by Europe and Alaska.
-
Consider booking a suite - If money isn't an issue, book a suite. Suites offer more space, a private balcony, and other amenities. These suites are typically available for between $100 and $300 per night depending on the size of the room and availability of suites during the sailing date.
-
Check the weather forecast. Cruising can often be associated with warm tropical environments. However, don't forget to check the weather forecasts for the days you'll be visiting the ports. It is possible for the sea to be unpredictable, especially in Antarctica. Before you book your cruise, it is a good idea to check how severe the weather may be.
-
Be light-weight - Pack only 10 items when packing for a cruise. This means that you don't need to pack a lot of clothes and shoes in your suitcase. It's better to pack only what you actually need in small bags. Also, bring clothing you can layer because you likely won't always be able to access laundry facilities onboard.
-
Read reviews before you purchase tickets. Be sure to review their policies regarding pricing, the services they provide, as well and whether cancellation policies make sense.
-
These must-see places are worth a visit. Every location has its own charm and culture so make sure you visit all of them.
