VIEW MOREWHERE'S THE BEST LOCATION FOR YOUR CABIN?
When it comes to booking your cabin on a cruise ship, the choice between the different types of cabin is normally fairly obvious in terms of what you are getting for your money. But next comes the question of where you want that cabin to be on the ship? At this point, it is tempting to start pouring over deck plans and it can all get very confusing, but we’ve produced our guide to help you know where the best place will be to have your cabin on the ship.
VIEW MORETHINGS TO DO BEFORE YOUR CRUISE
We think a great cruise starts well before the embarkation day. Once your booking is confirmed, most cruise lines will give you access to an online portal offering you a world of information and options regarding your upcoming cruise. It's well worth grabbing a cup of tea and having a look, as it can both save you time on embarkation day and ensure you avoid disappointment once you're on-board. Here are the 5 areas we think are the most important for you to have a look at:
VIEW MOREWHAT HAPPENS ON EMBARKATION DAY?
Embarkation day is always an exciting part of any cruise holiday. The anticipation of seeing your ship for the first time, getting on-board and forming your first impressions, excitedly exploring the facilities, and looking forward to the amazing cruise ports that await is a wonderful start to your holiday. The embarkation process may seem a bit overwhelming, but the good news is most cruise lines have got the organisation of embarkation down to a fine art. Here is our guide as to what to expect.
VIEW MOREWHAT HAPPENS ON DISEMBARKATION DAY?
Unfortunately, all good things have to come to an end, and disembarkation day is the point when your cruise finishes. The idea of getting everyone off the ship and away to their transport arrangements can sound a bit overwhelming, but the good news is that most cruise lines have got the organisation down to a fine art. Here is our guide as to what to expect on the last day of your cruise holiday.
