Royal Holiday Cruises

Welcome aboard, dear Royal Holiday member! At Royal at Sea, we know you’re eager to start packing and embark on your next cruise adventure with Royal Holiday. There’s nothing like spending a few days on a cruise, enjoying the amazing combination of exploring incredible destinations while having the comfort of a hotel on the ocean with stunning views.

However, before you pack your bags, it’s crucial to keep in mind some of the strict policies of cruise ships and make sure you don’t pack any prohibited items. These safety measures are designed to ensure your well-being as well as the safety of crew members and other passengers. If you’re planning your next cruise and wondering what not to bring, here’s a short guide on things you should avoid taking. Safety is always our top priority.

 

 

 

WEAPONS AND SHARP OBJECTS 

cruise - prohibited

Cruise ships have strict policies regarding any type of weapon, whether it’s a firearm or a sharp and pointy object that could be used to harm others. This includes large knives, sharp tools, and any other objects that could be considered a threat. The safety of everyone on board is our top priority, so all such items are strictly prohibited.

 

 

 

ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES

cruise - prohibited

Although the legality of certain substances may vary from country to country, illegal drugs are prohibited in all environments, and cruise ships are no exception. If you need to take prescribed medication, be sure it’s in its original packaging, and bring a doctor’s note verifying its use. These policies can vary depending on the cruise line, so make sure you research the specific rules of the ship you’re traveling on before your trip.

 

 

 

OBJECTS OF GREAT VALUE

While it’s not prohibited to bring jewelry, electronic devices, or expensive clothing, it’s recommended that you limit the number of valuable items you bring to avoid loss or damage during your trip. If you do bring valuables, make sure to store them in the safe provided in your cabin. For added security, we suggest only bringing what you truly need for your trip. You can also insure valuable items for extra peace of mind.

 

 

 

FOOD AND DRINKS

food and drinks

Most cruise lines prohibit external food and drinks since they offer all-inclusive services. This restriction is in place to ensure food safety and maintain the high quality of food on board. However, some cruise ships may allow small portions of food, especially if you have strict dietary requirements. Check with the cruise company beforehand to verify their policy.

 

 

 

FLAMMABLE OBJECTS

FLAMMABLE OBJECTS

Flammable materials, such as certain fuels and hazardous substances, are completely prohibited. This includes items like gas, lighters, or barbecue fuels. We want to ensure the safety of all passengers and crew members, so these objects are not allowed under any circumstances.

Before you board, make sure to review the specific policies of your cruise line. Some rules may vary slightly, so being informed is essential. Once again, we recommend packing only the essentials to keep your belongings organized. Review the list of prohibited items before boarding to avoid any surprises.

Now that you know what not to pack, it’s time to enjoy your adventure at sea!

At Royal at Sea, we wish you an amazing trip!

YOUR FIRST CRUISE: FULL GUIDE FOR YOUR TRIP

by Royal Holiday
written by Royal Holiday
First Cruise

Going on a cruise is a fantastic way of exploring various destinations without the need to constantly pack and unpack. If it is your first time on a cruise it’s normal to feel uncertainty about what to expect and how to prepare yourself. This guide offers practical advice to make your first cruise a pleasant experience with no setbacks.

 

 

 

PREVIOUS PLANNING

First Cruise

Before embarking on your first cruise, it’s very important to pick the cruise that best adapts to your interests and necessities. Consider factors like the duration of the trip, the destinations you’re visiting, and the activities available onboard. Cruises vary in size and style, from familiar options with water parks and activities for kids, to smaller and more luxurious cruises that offer a more intimate and relaxed experience.

 

Another important aspect is the budget. Cruise prices can vary significantly and it’s essential to understand what’s included with the payment. Some cruises are all-inclusive, while others can charge extra for certain services like beverages, tours, and dinners in specialized restaurants. Investigate the different options and choose the one that aligns more with your preferences and budget.

 

Remember that your Royal Holiday Membership allows you to enjoy one of the best experiences of your life with Royal at Sea, our exclusive cruise program. Get to know the world through our alliance with the most prestigious international shipping companies and make your dream vacation come true onboard spectacular ships.

 

 

 

PREPARATIONS BEFORE THE VACATION

passports

Once you’ve booked your cruise, the next step is to adequately prepare for your trip. Make sure to check the documentation requirements such as passports, visas, or any needed health forms, especially if the cruise visits many different countries. Additionally, consult the policies of baggage of the cruise line to avoid taking more than what’s allowed.

 

As for the attire, the majority of the cruises have specific dress codes for dinner and formal events. Pack casual clothes for the day, as well as more elegant outfits for the night. Don’t forget to include your swimsuit, sunscreen, hats, and comfortable shoes for land excursions.

 

 

 

ENJOYMENT ONBOARD: ACTIVITIES AND ENTERTAINMENT

Once onboard you’ll be surprised by the variety of activities and available entertainment. From pools and gyms to theatres and casinos, cruises are designed to keep you busy and entertained during the entire trip. Enjoy the activities that interest you, like cooking classes, yoga, trivia games, or simply relaxing at the spa.

 

It’s important to explore the ship during the first days to familiarize yourself with the facilities and know where the restaurants, rooms, and entertainment areas are. Plus, most cruises offer mobile apps or daily programs that inform you about the activities and schedule.

 

 

 

LAND TOURS

One of the main advantages of a cruise is the possibility of visiting multiple destinations without having to change housing. The excursions on land are an essential part of the experience and they allow you to explore different cities, beaches, and tourist attractions.

Before leaving, check the tour options offered by the cruise line. Some people prefer to book tours with anticipation to make sure they have space for the most popular activities, while others prefer to explore on their own. If you pick the last option, investigate a little about the destinations and plan your itinerary to make the most out of your time.

 

 

 

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Lastly, here are some practical advice for your first cruise:

  • Always carry a small bag with the essentials with you (documents, medicines, sunscreen) when you leave the ship.
  • Stay informed about the departure and return times of the ship to avoid setbacks.
  • If you tend to get seasick consider having medicine or natural remedies, although most modern ships are equipped with stabilizers that minimize the movement.

 

Going on a cruise for the first time is an exciting experience that, with a little planning, can be incredibly pleasant. From choosing your ideal cruise to the activities onboard and the tours, every aspect of your trip can be optimized to make sure you have an unforgettable experience. Be prepared to set sail and enjoy a unique experience at sea!

CRUISE SEASON, WHAT IS THE BEST OPTION?

by Royal Holiday
written by Royal Holiday
cruise season

At Royal Holiday Club, we try hard to make your dream vacations come true. That’s why, apart from telling you what the best cruise season is, we encourage you to explore more experiences and ways of relaxation and fun. And what better way to go on an adventure than enjoying some days on a cruise, away from the daily routine?

 

 

HIGH SEASON

cruise season

The high season in cruises is usually during the summer months, from June to August, and during winter vacations, especially in December. These months are popular because they offer favorable weather, as well as many open attractions, but it also means higher prices and increased tourist crowds. If you like liveliness, and onboard activities, and you’re not bothered by multitudes, this is an excellent time to travel.

 

 

MID-SEASON

cruise season

Spring (from March to May) and fall (from September to November) are usually mid-seasons that combine the best of both worlds. The weather is generally nice, multitudes are moderate, and prices are reasonable. This is an excellent option if you’re looking for a balance between cost and comfort.

 

 

LOW SEASON

royal holiday membership cruises

This season, which goes from September to November and January to April, is ideal if you’re looking for a more calm experience with more accessible prices. During these months cruises are less busy, which allows you to enjoy the ship’s facilities and the destinations with higher comfort. However, it’s important to consider that the weather can be less predictable, especially in tropical regions during hurricane season.

It’s important to restate that the best season to go on a cruise depends on your personal preferences and what you’re looking for in your trip. For example, if you would rather have a warm climate and you don’t mind paying some more for it, high season can be your option. If you value tranquility and accessible prices, consider the low season. And if you want a middle ground, mid-season is your best shot.

Whatever choice you make, Royal Holiday Club is compromised to make your visit an unforgettable experience in the open sea. Born voyage!

On the other hand, high season also offers a wide range of activities on board and the opportunity of enjoying warm and sunny weather in tropical destinations.
