pinchme Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 We leave this Sunday on Oasis. I feel like I am forgetting a million things! Is there a blog post or two that has "what to do before you leave" or "last minute tips"? I've almost finished online check-in and I still need to print luggage tags and SetSailPasses. Any suggestions or helpful tips appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antarec Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 For me...the two biggest things are: 1. Passport 2. Credit card. Pretty much everything else is replaceable/buyable once you get to Florida. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions or helpful tips appreciated. Here is a check list I used for one of my cruise , its not a full one , but it can give you some idea : Passport with at least 6 month left until expiration that has at least empty pages +Visas if needed Credit cards + Notify them that they might see transactions from foreign countries Medicines and first aid kits Prescriptions for medicines Sunglasses A4 copy of each passport photo page Passport size photos *2 Printouts of the hotel bookings + the address Printed ship luggage tags Clear tape to attached the tags Small bag for the first night. Small backpacks for the shore excursions Copy of the sail passes after you complete the online checking Charges for the cellphone/camera/tablets better one that has many USB exists as the power outlets in the state rooms are limited Copy of the flights tickets including prints of the flights back. Camera Extra battery for the camera and extra memory cards. Battery bank for long shore excursions for emergency recharge. Sandwich nylon bags for small items Electric universal power plug for the hotels and the ship (in the ship you will find Europe and US power outlet) Magnets to hang things in the staterooms Eyeglasses prescriptions Two bottle of wines Printout of any planned activities including private shore excursions List of emergency phone calls including Royal Caribbean phones at each country/port. Port address both in English and the local language Books/cards/crosswords books/small games for the flights and ship Driving license Empty plastic or metal bootless to feel water Thermos to keep some hot water in the room (you don’t have Kettle in the stateroom nor you allow to bring one) Shampoo/Conditioner - in most of the stateroom there is one liquid which suppose to serve as soap/Shampoo/Conditioner so its better to bring some with you. Folded dress shirts for official nights - usually I give some shirts to the nearest laundry and ask them to iron it and pack them folded - in the state room there isn't Iron to use Sunscreen upload songs and movies to your cellphone/tablet. Install the airline application over the cellphone Install offline dictionary on the cellphone Update the roaming plans for the cellphone Cancel newspaper subscriptions Money for tips Transfer arrangements Willkie talkies- a good cheap way to communicate on the ship with family and friends swimming suite JLMoran, Lovetocruise2002 and Skid 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
