THINGS TO PACK

Here is a list of items you may want to bring with you on your cruise. Unless you are flying on a plane first, you can bring "almost" anything you're willing to carry on board.​

 

Please keep in mind that not all Cruise Lines are the same and their policies can change at anytime. So either check on their website for items allowed on board or simply reach out to us and we'll verify it for you. Happy travels!

 

Holiday Destination

  • Sunblock - (The BIG Bottle)

  • Aloe - (In case you forget to sunblock)
  • Sun Glasses

  • Binoculars 

  • Hat

  • Sanitizer

  • Shampoo/Conditioner/Body soap - (They do provide some soaps, but if you have a favorite, bring it.)

  • Anti-Bacterial Soap - (Again, they do provide soap, but you may want your own.)

  • Band-Aids

  • Medicine - (In the event your not feeling well, have allergies, indigestion or a head ache from last night.)

  • Lint Roller

  • Anti-wrinkle spray

  • Cash - (Even though cash is not typically needed for anything onboard, you may want cash for tipping someone that has gone above and beyond, for bargain shopping at the ports or playing in the casino.)

  • Passport - (In many cases you will not need a passport to cruise, but it can make your embarkation/disembarkation much faster. Plus some ports have a place to get your passport stamped. So look into your ports of call and find out where to get yours.)

  • Dry Bag or Zip Lock Bags - (You may want to bring valuables with you during water excursions.)

  • Waterproof Phone case

  • Personal Water Bottle

  • Reusable Straws - (Many cruise lines have done away with plastic straws. But they may offer paper or edible straws upon request.)

  • Games - (If you like to play cards, dominoes, board games, etc. There are many great locations on board to setup a game with friends and family.)

  • Koozie

  • Wine/Champagne - (1 Bottle PP)

  • Soda - (One 12 pack of cans PP)

  • Cork Screw - (Nothing worse than getting ready to pop that bottle of wine for the sail away party and not have a cork screw. If you do forget one just ask your room steward for one.)

  • Stateroom Decorations - (Decorating your door is not only fun but it also makes it easier to find your room.)

  • Magnetic Hooks - (These can be great for decorating your door and hanging stuff up in your cabin since most of the walls are magnetic.)

  • Lanyard - (Great for carrying your room key.)

  • Party Beads

  • Costumes - (If you're going on a Halloween cruise, then why not dress up with everyone else. Just remember, no masks.)

  • Water shoes

  • Snorkel Gear

  • ISUP - (Bringing an Inflatable Stand Up Paddleboard can be great if your planning to do beach excursions and snorkeling from the beach. It can work like a floating dock.)

  • Formal attire - (Many cruises will have at least one formal night, if not more. So bring your best outfit and take some memorable pictures.)

  • Rubber Ducks to Hide - (Join in on the scavenger hunt. Guests will bring rubber ducks aboard to hide for other guests to find. "Keep or hide, you decide.") 

  • Back pack

  • Rain Jacket or Puffer Jacket - (Definitely useful if you're cruising Alaska, Hawaii or any rainforest.)

  • Laundry Bag 

  • Download your favorite shows/movies - (Some platforms like Netflix will allow you to download shows/movies that can be watched offline.)

  • Bug Spray (If your planning an excursion in a rain forest or anywhere bugs may be.)

  • Book - (Enjoy a great book while over looking the ocean.)

  • Night light - (It can be pretty dark in your stateroom at night and there's nothing worse than having to turn on a bright light when your half asleep.)
