Mazz55 Posted January 21, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 21, 2015 My husband and I are traveling with 2 carry on luggage. Is it best to keep it with us on embarkment and disembarkment? Very important that we don't lose anything which has happened in the past. Do others do this as well? Thanks for your help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalgirl Posted January 21, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 21, 2015 We have done both - when we have something really important the luggage will stay with us. As long as you are prepared to possibly keep it with you for a few hours, you should be fine. You will see others doing this as well. Sometimes we check it so that we don't have to bother with lugging it around the ship until the cabin is ready. But we always do a walk off with our luggage at the end of the cruise since we usually only have one carry one bag each - saves hunting for our luggage in a big pile.

Thanks for your help!![/QUOTE] Greetings Cabins are often not ready until after 1 pm. You will have to find a place to "camp" with your luggage until then. Not a real problem, many bring carry on bags with their necessities and check a large bag with their clothes. Of course if you board a bit late then you just take the luggage straight to your cabin. I sure wish my SO could learn to travel with just carry on luggage. Sometime she wants to pack more than will fit in 2 streamer trunks.

bigbenboys Posted January 21, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I try not to get to the pier until 1pm. Cabins seem to open up about 1 to 1:30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbanrenewal Posted January 21, 2015 #6 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I've cruised with(out) luggage that was lost, and have since learned to travel with carry on size only. No reason why you can't roll onboard, and if boarding before around 1pm when you can get to your room, bring it with you. We tend to head poolside and take turns going to pick up something for lunch, or hop in the pool. It's really convenient to self-disembark.

goodycruising Posted January 21, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Your luggage just has to be able to fit through the security scanner doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
