Packing for a cruise is a fun, yet stressful experience especially if it is your first time. You want everything to be perfect on your first nautical voyage. After all, you are treating yourself to a week-long pampering with lots of great food, awesome drinks, tons of fun and activities, and spectacular views. What should you bring (or not bring) on your cruise?
Our incurable cruise fever started January 2019 when we unlocked the opulent world of cruising on board Royal Caribbean’s Enchantment of the Seas. After a brief 4-day cruise enjoying the invigorating bliss of the Bahamian sun, we found ourselves drawn towards the allure of cruising on more magnanimous ships, particularly the Oasis class ships of the Royal Caribbean line.
How exciting! Your next cruise escapade is just around the corner. I’m sure you can hardly contain your enthusiasm as thoughts of your journey into the open sea captures even your waking moments.
But before the embarking comes the necessity of packing. I would recommend making a checklist of everything you’ll need on your week long aquatic escapade just to avoid leaving any essential items behind. How about the things you can’t bring on your cruise? Things that you won’t imagine will be prohibited onboard a cruise ship?
It takes no time to grow fond of the overwhelming allure of cruising the open seas. The stunning view of ocean waves glistening under the bright Bahamian sun, the gentle embrace of warm tropical breeze proving itself a stark contrast to frigid winter months, and the plethora of thrills and gastronomic generosities a cruise ship has to offer. All amalgamated into this amazing world called cruising.
Let’s face it. Money doesn’t grow on trees and cruising, however fun, can be a costly experience. You have finally saved up enough money to take your family on a 7-day Eastern Caribbean Cruise. With your heart excitedly pounding in your chest, you went online , bought tickets and pressed confirm. Woohoo! Cruising, here we go!
