Senior Sailors: Before-You-Cruise Checklist |
Cruises are great! You get to enjoy the luxury and all the amenities, plus some extras, of a luxury seaside hotel. Your resort at sea also transports you from port to port, for exciting new ocean and city sights every day. When you plan a cruise, there are important things to do: Official: Check early with your travel agent on updated passports and other documents you must have with you. Clothing: Learn all about the climate where you’ll cruise, and pack accordingly. You may sail in tropical temperatures during the day, and roam chilly decks and port cities at night. Meds: Take enough for the cruise schedule, plus another week's supply, just in case. Have copies of all active prescriptions with you. Sunscreen, hat and sunglasses: The sun in tropical areas is intense. Now that you’re no longer a hardy teen, be kind to your senior eyes and skin while sailing the ocean blue. |
