You’ve booked your cruise and now you’re wondering, “What do I take?” and, perhaps more importantly, “What do I NOT take?” Packing for any vacation can be time-consuming. It really helps to know in advance exactly what you will need. If you are headed to the Caribbean for 7 days or taking an adventure into the chillier Alaskan waters, you’ll need to be prepared.
