Is there anything I should know about cruises?
Before you take your first cruise, you need to know a lot of things. First, you should remember that you will be traveling alongside other people. Don't be critical of other people as you don't know their feelings about anything. Remember that you'll be sharing meals and drinks with strangers. Wear appropriate clothing. Do not wear shorts or tank tops on deck. Wear comfortable clothing you don't have to worry about getting muddy. Prepare for extreme temperatures. Pack plenty of sunscreens. For those times when you are outside, make sure to bring a hat, sunglasses and a lightweight jacket. Remember that you are responsible. Don't drink & drive!

Cruising is all about relaxing and enjoying yourself. You don't have to see everything.
Many types of cruises are available, from short trips around Europe to longer voyages across the Pacific. The length of the trip depends on what you want to accomplish during your vacation.
What is the travel time to the port?
The distance between the port, the ship's speed, and other factors affect the time it takes to get to the port. Not all ships dock near shore. They can then unload their passengers very quickly. Other ships dock further away from land, so it takes longer for the ship to arrive.

How To
How to avoid becoming seasick during a cruise
You can avoid seasickness by wearing a cap while on cruise. A wide-brimmed cap helps to prevent motion sickness by keeping your head from moving too much.
Also, a hat helps keep water off your face, which reduces the humidity. This makes breathing easier for people prone to feeling dizzy when they breathe in moist air.
Another tip is to drink lots of fluids. Avoid alcohol or caffeine. These drinks dehydrate our bodies, which makes it difficult for fluid to move around in our stomachs. Salt levels can be decreased by drinking enough liquids. Salt causes the body's retention of water, which can lead to nausea.
Salty foods can help if you feel nauseated. Salty foods increase the production of hydrochloric, which helps to break down food.
There are medication options available to help seasickness. You should be aware that side effects can include dry mouth and constipation as well as headaches.
