gail811 Posted November 4, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Welcome to Cruise Critic and the wonderful world of cruising! My advice is to read these boards, take notes, and ask questions. Most people on here were first time cruisers just like you at some point and are more than happy to share tips they learned over the years.

tammymacb Posted November 4, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I'll be on that cruise also! With my DH and DD and her best friend. It'll be here before we know it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatherBFishin Posted November 4, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Any tips??? 1) Don't overpack. 2) If you need anything, ask! Your cabin steward and waitstaff aren't mind readers, so let them know what you require (politely of course). 3) You can have more than one serving of anything. If you like an appetizer, get another. There is no quota per person. 4) Don't be afraid to just relax. Doing the sea-day activities is not mandatory. You're not missing out on getting your money's worth by just unwinding. 5) Be patient. There are a couple thousand other passengers on board. If you have to wait in line at times, take it in stride. 6) Go with an open mind and just have fun.

canuck eh? Posted November 4, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi - We are also on that cruise. Come and join us on the Roll Call. My best advice has already been given to you - don't overpack. I now bring one pair of black pants for dinners and seven different tops. Works great for me. Hope to see you at the meet and greet. Welcome aboard!
