Southampton, Hampshire, United Kingdom
A cruise ship at night.

Going on a cruise is all about relaxing, letting go of all your worries, and exploring the unparalleled beauty of other lands and cultures.

As a first-timer, you might have made a comprehensive travel plan to prepare for your journey. But you can’t anticipate everything that might change. This is why we’ve compiled a list of helpful hacks that will make your journey completely hassle-free.

Before you book a taxi service to the cruise port, read ahead to learn some nifty cruise hacks.

1. Pack a Carry On Bag for the Cruise

First, pack a carry-on bag all of your necessary supplies along with a bathing suit. When you first arrive on your cruise ship, porters will take away your luggage to shift it to your room. This process takes time, so it’s best to have all of your essentials with you in a carry-on.

You might not be able to get your luggage back for a few hours when you first get on board. So pack things like sunscreen, medication, hat, phone charger, etc. in your carry on to be prepared.

2. Always Keep Extra Toiletries

Buying sunscreen, Band-Aids, and aspirin from the cruise ship can cost you a pretty penny. Cruiselines know that you will eventually require these things and price the items at their stores accordingly.

This is why it’s best to have a small bag with a bunch of important over-the-counter medicines like seasickness, sunscreen, and toiletries. It’s also helpful to carry Clorox wipes to wipe down any surfaces, foldable shoe racks, room fresheners, and extra batteries.

3. Book an Interior Cabin

The reason why several experienced cruisers book the interior stateroom is that they’re the least expensive. If you plan on spending most of your time outside anyways, you can always cosy up in an interior stateroom and save money.
