Frequently Asked Questions

Booking & Preparation

1. When is the best time to book a cruise?

  • The best time to book a cruise is usually 6-12 months in advance for the best deals and availability. However, last-minute deals can be found 1-3 months before departure if you’re flexible.

2. Do I need a passport for a cruise?

  • It depends on the itinerary. Closed-loop cruises (departing and returning to the same U.S. port) often allow U.S. citizens to use a birth certificate and government-issued ID. However, for international cruises, a valid passport is required.

3. Are cruises all-inclusive?

  • Most cruises cover accommodation, meals in main dining areas, entertainment, and some onboard activities. However, extras like specialty dining, drinks, shore excursions, WiFi, and gratuities often cost extra.

4. What should I pack for a cruise?

  • Essentials include casual clothing, swimwear, formalwear (for dress-up nights), comfortable shoes, sunscreen, medications, and any necessary travel documents.

Onboard Experience

5. What is included in the cruise fare?

  • Your fare typically includes your cabin, main dining meals, select beverages, entertainment, pools, fitness center, and kids' programs. Additional costs apply for alcohol, specialty dining, shore excursions, and spa treatments.

6. Are cruise ships safe?

  • Yes, cruise ships follow strict safety protocols, including mandatory lifeboat drills, onboard medical staff, and advanced navigation systems. Always follow crew instructions and take note of emergency procedures.

7. Will I get seasick?

  • Modern cruise ships have stabilizers to reduce movement. If you’re prone to motion sickness, choose a midship cabin on a lower deck and bring seasickness medication or patches.

8. Is WiFi available on a cruise?

  • Yes, but it often costs extra and may be slower than land-based internet. Some cruise lines offer different WiFi packages depending on your needs.

Dining & Activities

9. Do I have to eat at specific times?

  • Most cruises offer traditional dining (set times) and flexible dining (eat anytime within certain hours). Buffets and specialty restaurants provide additional options.

10. Are there activities for kids?

  • Yes, most cruise lines have kids’ clubs, teen lounges, pools, waterslides, arcades, and family-friendly entertainment.

11. What activities are available onboard?

  • Depending on the ship, you’ll find pools, water parks, fitness centers, spas, casinos, live shows, comedy acts, dance clubs, and even rock climbing walls, zip lines, or go-kart tracks.

Shore Excursions & Ports

12. Are shore excursions included in the cruise fare?

  • No, shore excursions are an additional cost. You can book through the cruise line or arrange independent tours at each port.

13. Can I explore ports on my own?

  • Yes, you can explore on your own unless you’re in a port requiring a guided tour (like some places in the Galápagos or Cuba). Just make sure to return to the ship before departure.

14. What happens if I miss the ship at a port?

  • If you miss the ship, you’ll have to arrange your own transportation to the next port. Always return at least 1 hour before the ship’s departure.

Costs & Payments

15. Are gratuities included in the cruise fare?

  • Most cruise lines automatically add gratuities (typically $14–$20 per person per day) to your onboard account. You can adjust these at the guest services desk.

16. Can I use cash onboard?

  • Most cruise lines operate on a cashless system using your room key or wristband for purchases. However, cash is accepted at casinos and for tipping local guides.

17. Are drink packages worth it?

  • If you plan to drink multiple alcoholic beverages, specialty coffees, or sodas daily, a drink package can save money. Otherwise, paying per drink might be more cost-effective.

Health & Safety

18. What happens if I get sick on a cruise?

  • Ships have onboard medical facilities with doctors and nurses. Travel insurance is recommended to cover any medical expenses.

19. Are there COVID-19 or vaccination requirements?

  • Requirements vary by cruise line and destination. Always check the latest health protocols before sailing.

20. Is travel insurance necessary for a cruise?

  • While not required, travel insurance is highly recommended to cover medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and lost luggage.
