In about two months my family and I going on the Liberty Of The Seas this is our first time going on Royal Caribbean and I really excited. I have already found a digital camera that takes both photos and film clips but what else so I bring with me? I won't be getting my passport until next week but I like to take my time with shopping and getting my hair done for the trip. I know that crazy because the trip is two months away be I like to ready but I don't what else to bring with on the trip and the plane ride to Miami. What I should do on the plane ride to Miami? I am flying Delta airlines(New Delta) and they are putting AVOD in all the planes including the plane I will be on the Airbus a320. My flight going there is about two pushing three hours but my flight is three hours. I will be not taking my laptop but will posting pictures and videos on youtube and facebook will get back. What I should bring with me?





Answer :
I have been on about 20 cruises, many with Royal Caribbean, ( cruised on the Liberty last Nov) and here's what I suggest based on my experiences:

Always pack your passport and cruise documents in your carry on bag ONLY.

The dress on ship is casual all day until 6:00PM, so take:
-swim wear (at least 2),
-shorts, tank tops and "T's"
-sandals,
-beach shoes,
-your snorkel equipment if you have it,
-sun glasses and sun screen,
-lotions,
-a cap or big hat for the sun,
-a book if you are a reader,
-your music player,
-sneakers and clothes to workout in if you like to use the gym,
-good walking shoes,
-your camera, and
-other personal toiletries including tooth paste, mouth wash or lotions.

Your cabin will have towels and soap provided, including pool and beach towels, and a hair dryer. It will also have a generic hair shampoo so you do not need to bring that unless you like a specific brand.

After 6:00 PM they request that you wear "sports or resort casual" attire. That's attire that you would expect a person to wear in a business office, (like a bank employee), shirt with a collar, slacks, skirt, blouse, etc. You can still wear shorts and swim wear in the pools and spas but not in public areas like dining rooms and restaurants, show rooms, bars, casino, etc. Don't over pack , take clothes that you can mix and match tops and bottoms and plan to wear each piece twice. If you are going to the Caribbean you will likely be in shorts and/or swim wear most of every day so evening clothes don't usually get much wear.

Your cruise will have a formal night or two when you can wear your best stuff and get pictures taken, and maybe meet the ship’s Captain. The formal nights are REQUESTED not required attire. You will not be denied entry to the main dining room if you decide not to dress up, as long as you are at least sports casual. But most people do dress up. A gown or party dress for women and a suit or tux for men. Some people dress up both formal nights, some don't. We always take the formal stuff off after dinner and a photo or two and go back to casual stuff.

- Its best to pack using soft-sided luggage because with space limited in your cabin it fits under the beds better if its not hard sided luggage. Pack using the vacuum clothing bags (about $20 for 3 at Target) so that you can get more in your bag AND so that if the TSA at the airport opens your bag they can see what's inside without rummaging through your things. Take a small carry-on bag for the last night of the cruise. On the last evening you will be required to put your luggage outside your cabin by about 2:00 AM so that they can start taking it down to the lower deck for offloading the next morning. So you will need a small bag for your toiletries and your clothes that you sleep in.

- If you are taking your cell phone, MP3 player or other item that needs to be plugged in take an extension cord as the plugs in the cabin are generally not in the best places and there are usually only one or two.

- Take a small bottle of hand sanitizer and/or hand-wipes. There are generally sanitizer dispensers at the entrances of restaurants, the buffets and dining room, but some times the are not there or not working. The sanitizer helps prevent the spread of the Norwalk Virus that sometimes occur on cruise ships.

-If you plan to get into the pools or hot tub as soon as you get on ship (they will be open), bring those clothes in your carry on bag; you other luggage may not get to your cabin until much later in the afternoon.

- Take a can of air freshener for your cabin bathroom. The bathrooms do not have exhaust fans.

- Take a few zip lock bags of various sizes; they always come in handy.

- Take some one dollar bills (also maybe a few $5's) for tipping the porters in the airport, at the pier (they do not work for the ship), and they will come in handy in port stops for buying small items in the markets and at vendor stands; especially bartering places.

Take your music player so you can listen while on the plane.





Answer :
I'm going on a cruise in a week, I'll be traveling on the Norwegian Cruise Line, and I am also going to the Caribbean. I am soo excited.
I'm only bringing one pair of jeans with me because it's going to be hot there.
I'm taking like five bathing suits
and like four dresses because you can't wear shorts or jeans in the dining room after six at night.
Of course i'm taking my camera, cell phone, and all that stuff.
Take a pair of sneakers and flipflops and maybe bring a couple sweaters because it's might be windy at night.

on the plane, i am bringing a purse as a carry-on.
in it, i'm bringing my ipods, i have two in case on dies, gum, and some other candy or something, my camera , cellphone etc. i am probably going to bring a couple magazines, and a wordsearch book or a puzzle book or something. also, im going to put a pair of shorts in my purse as well because when i leave home, i will be wearing pants because its cold, and when i get there, it will be hot so ill change into shorts . hope this helped.
