Going on a cruise will be one of the most fun and
memorable experiences of your life but without some
important information your fantastic trip could
become a total disaster.

Here are the 7 biggest mistakes people make on
cruises and how to avoid them.

1. Booking your cruise TOO late - Book at least 3 -
6 months in advance and pay in full to save up to
15% on your trip. Doing so you'll also get the best
choice of stateroom and the biggest discount on
your cruise. Remember, cruises are cheaper in the
off-season

2. Lacking the required passport and documentation
- Before you leave make sure you have the correct
documents to travel to all the ports during your
trip. Imagine having to stay on the ship while
everyone else was having fun on land.

3. Choosing a bad place for a stateroom - Some
staterooms will seem appealing in price but don't
be fooled the following should always be avoided:
rooms just below the disco, next to the elevator,
below a gym or restaurant or a lounge. (Unless of
course, you like the excessive noise :)

4. Not making your luggage stand out - The last
thing you want is someone else grabbing your
luggage because they thought it was their bag. It
could be days before they locate your bag with
thousands of people on board a large cruiser. Tie
some brightly colored string or duct tape in a
unique way onto your handle that makes it
individual and stand out.

5. Thinking you'll save money in town - Most people
think that price must be cheaper in port because
they’re no longer forced to the ship’s prices. Be
careful. Many of these merchants are ready for
tourists and often sell inferior products at
similar prices.

6. Not looking at the “all included” meals fine
print - While food is often included in the cruise
price itself, most of the time, alcohol is not.
Just understand that you are probably paying for it
and drink according to your budget.

7. Not eating often enough - Did you know that
eating 6 smaller meals on a cruise is better than 3
bigger meals? And considering the average person
gains 10 pounds on a 7-day cruise, it’s worth
gaining some insights into maintaining your weight.
Nothing’s worse than coming home from a cruise only
to realize you need to lose 20 pounds.

So there you have it 7 great ways to get the most
out of your cruise.
