    Excellent video, Another Suggestion is to put a copy of either your boarding pass or luggage tag inside your luggage right on top of your clothes, that way in case the outside tag gets ripped off accidentally while it’s being transported from the terminal to the ship the crew can open up the bag and see what room it belongs to. I do the same thing with any luggage that I fly with, I put a piece of paper with my contact information inside in case it gets lost and the baggage tag gets ripped off.

    As a cruise port employee here is a couple of Debark luggage tips that help prevent a headache for guests as well as workers. If you are putting your bags out for hallway pickup on your last night at sea be sure to pick up your blue numbered zone tags. By using these tags your luggage will easier to locate during the mad rush to go home. Also be sure to tear off the tag receipt so you can remember your zone. Use your phone camera to take a picture of your bags in the hallway. You can use the pic to verify your bags and show the pic to luggage workers if we need to help find it.
    A lot of luggage looks alike and believe me a lot of it is black soft sided. Try putting an identifier, a bright ribbon, colorful tape or tie a colored cloth, to a handle on your bags. Make them look different from every other bag so they won't be easily confused by other guests trying to round up their black bags.
    Pack as light as you can. We see busted zippers every sailing due to overpacking and/or overweight. Even expensive bags break.

      can you use a non lock like a carabiner or a snap hook? Just so the bags don't accidently come open? I thought about twist ties but that seems obnoxious. I purchased some wrist lanyards I decided not to use. I'm going to put those on the luggage! (not to carry, just for identifying.) Thanks for the tips! We are driving to the port, not flying.

    What you are going to CARRY ON YOURSELF has to stay with you until your cabin is ready! If you board early, and cabin isn't cleaned yet, you have to lug everything with you. We use ture airline sized carry on, back pack or small carry on duffel bag as carry ons when cruising. We have had the cabin Stewart allow us to drop these off into the closet while the room is finished, but never count on it. So, weight, size and amount might have to be kept with you a while.
    Also, I carry on a non-surge power strip with my C-Pap machine and have never had an issue, since it is a medical device.
    The reason for the number of bags recommendation is storage in the cabin.
    Also, TSA locks on checked bags are allowed. Extra security counts. One time we had to go to security to open a bag, wife packed a small steamer that they saw on x-ray, we unlo ked the bag, TSA lock, and they held it until day of disembarking. They didn't find the alcohol we brought in the other bags. See the other Videos on the how and where to buy the items needed.

    Never heard about the limitation on bags or weight limits for cruise ships, and I'm a Platinum member of Carnival. As a solo traveler, one bag (either small or large, depending on the length of the cruise) is enough for me, along with a carry-on. Recommendations about documents and medication being in your carry-on make sense, as I don know folks whose luggage has been misplaced for hours or even overnight (it was delivered to another room and the person in that stateroom didn't report it until the next morning). Royal Caribbean allows two bottles of wine per person, which was nice when six of us took a 7-night RC cruise. The one-bottle limit was fine for my four-night Carnival cruise late last year. I really appreciate the news updates and information you bring in your videos.

      @@valerie8320good point. I have had non surge power strips taken and was not aware of their wording. You may get one through but if they catch it they will hold it until the end of the cruise. I did check online regarding your comment and in writing you are correct. Their wording however leaves it to the crews discretion. I’ve never needed a power strip on a ship as my rooms have had plenty of outlets. I have had power strips taken that I had in my luggage for use in hotels before and after the cruise. I actually try to watch videos on CZcams of rooms I may book to see what the outlet situation is.

They took a strip once and that was when I found out about the cube. Mine has 4 plugs, 1 in each corner, and 2 USB outlets in the center. I have used it 6 times now without any issues.

Other than that, pretty good advice, but you still see people that packed their documents in checked luggage, and some disembarking wearing pajamas and slippers because they didn't save anything to wear.

      "On embarkation day, a small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages (i.e., sparkling water, sodas, energy drinks, juice, and milk), packaged in cans or cartons, may be brought on board and must be in the guest's carry-on luggage. A small quantity is considered a maximum of 12 sealed, unopened cans/cartons of 12 ounces each or less, per person.
      Guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages on board with the following exception - at the beginning of the cruise during embarkation day only, guests (21 years of age and older) may bring one 750 ml bottle of sealed/unopened wine or champagne, per person, in their carry-on luggage. Outside this exception, all liquor, beer, other forms of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited in both carry-on and checked luggage and such items will be confiscated and discarded and no compensation will be provided. Guests sailing with us on back-to-back cruises are entitled to bring the same quantity as stated in this policy, per cruise. The additional quantities will be stored for safekeeping at the start of the first cruise and will be given to the guest as each following cruise begins."

      I have seen individual bottles trashed. We always leave some space in our wheeled carry on, then we carry the beverages to the check in area. After we clear that area, we find a chair, open the carry on, pull the containers out of the plastic bands and put them into the carry on. Now, they are easy to haul around until the cabin has opened.
      This is a trick an elderly couple shared on a cruise back in 2015 with a group of about 30 guests. I actually thought he was cruise staff since so many people were around him, watching and listening to him. I saw his sweet wife of 40 years later about day 3-4, and she said they were “trapped” there as he gave the talk for about 25 minutes “again, and again”. Someone from the cruise line had a OBC added to their account. She was so excited about that! I have thought about them many times and wonder if they are well and still cruising.

      Bring your own bottle opener, and open in your room even if you pour into another cup or glass. We have never taken a bottle to main Dining Room to ask them or a room attendant to open, that's when they try to charge a cork fee. As stated above anything you buy in ports, they have you fill out a tag, and deliver to your room the last night for you to carry off with you next day.
