travelwishtv.com Going Ashore – At most ports the Ship will drop anchor right at the dock. At these ports you can exit and board the ship at your leisure all day long. At the other ports the ship drops anchor in the bay and you have to take a small boat called a “Tender” to shore. Since everyone can’t ride on the tender at once, sometimes the ship hands out tender tickets to go ashore. If you are in a big hurry to get ashore be sure to get your tender tickets as early as possible. That will insure a ride on the first tender. If the ship is stopping at a private island it is imperative to get there first if you want your pick of the best spots on the beach. The rest of the day the tender goes back and forth every thirty minutes. This has been Lisel Hlista for travelwishtv.com with yet another travel tip. Thanks for watching.

travelwishtv.com Bottled Water – When you get to your cabin you may find a liter of bottled water and a few cans of soft drinks. They appear to be complimentary but if you read the fine print you’ll see that there’s a charge if you open them. Don’t touch these unless you want to ring up an expensive charge to pay at the end of your cruise! While on the port of calls it would be cheaper to purchase some water and soft drinks. You can even smuggle on some beer or liquor to cut down on costs if you would like. This has been Lisel Hlista for travelwishtv.com with yet another travel tip. Thanks for watching

travelwishtv.com The Toilet – Whatever you do, never flush the toilet while sitting on it! This may be strange advice unless you have been on a cruise ship before. The suction is so great you can really be injured. Ouch! The powerful suction is the butt of many jokes by the onboard comedians, literally! Thankfully now most ships have the flush button behind the lid so you have to get up to reach it. This has been Lisel Hlista for travelwishtv.com with yet another travel tip. Thanks for watching.

travelwishtv.com Hot Tubs – Most cruise ships today have hot tubs that are big and roomy and provide a great way to relax. The hot tubs are are often crowded and offer a very social setting to meet fellow passengers. If you find the hot tubs are too crowded you might want to come back to the ship early during a port day. While everyone else is off the ship is the best time to enjoy the hot tubs on board. One thing important to remember is that hot tubs are always loaded with chlorine and will fade your new swimsuit unless you purchase one that’s resistant to chlorine. If you don’t have one that’s resistant to chlorine you should wear your old one in the hot tub and save your new swimsuits for the beach.

travelwishtv.com Soft Drinks – Coffee, tea and water are always free but soft drinks have to be purchased from the bar or waitstaff. If you have children with you and extra room in your luggage you can bring a case of soft drinks. The ice in your room is free. The cruise line, of course, would rather you buy your sodas from them does not have rules against bringing your own from home or bringing them on the ship from the many port-of-calls. Perhaps a better idea is that some of the cruise ships allow you to purchase a soft drink card for about thirty bucks and with that card your child can purchase all they can drink. Something new in cruising are adult cards for unlimited soft drinks or an additional card for a limited number of non-alcoholic mixed drinks.

travelwishtv.com More about tips – Other than room and board and a very small paycheck tips are the only salary the workers receive and they do work extremely long and hard. Please be sure to have extra cash on hand at the end of the cruise for just this purpose. You can charge your tips to your credit card if you want, in fact many cruise ships automatically charge them to your Ship Credit Card account unless you tell them not to. I recommend giving them cash because it’s more convenient for the workers. If you do allow the ship to add the tips to your on board account, you should at least give them a little extra in cash if they’ve done a good job. Envelopes will be provided in your room on the next to last day of the cruise for you to hand the money to them on the last evening. If you divide your tips out ahead of time it will save you from running for change on the last night of the cruise. Remember the room steward and waiter each receive a minimum of $3.50 per day and the assistant waiter receives $2.50 per day. You can give the maitre de’ or “Head Waiter” a total of about 50 cents a day but only if he spends time making sure your meals are perfect. Another time you should tip is if you orde
