Here's two more tips..Take a ziplock sandwich size bag and put in some fabric softner sheets. Then when your worn dirty clothes start to get funky throw a fabric sheet or two into were your putting your dirty clothes hamper or suitecase. Works amazing. Also If you have a suitecase without combo locks on them buy a couple of tsa locks and put your laptop or expensive stuff that wont fit in your safe put them in your suitcase under the bed and then just lock it up.
I’m pretty sure those eyedrops can’t be healthy. Never heard of eyedrops in the EU that turn tired eyes white in an instant and I think because it is a health concern
As an RN I recommend you still buy the small bottles of eye drops. The smaller bottles are used up faster which reduces the amount of time bacteria can contaminate the tip or product. Also the Kindle’s are great for old eyes you can enlarge the font, yay!
Eye drops is actually something that I've never heard people take with them. One that I always say is to take some empty zip-locked bags with you. If you're going to the beach/onto a boat (even a cruise ship tender), pop your phone in there if you need to keep it waterproof - job done!
I don’t leave my house without putting lumify in. I keep one in our travel bag. It works like a charm especially since I wake up everyday with bloodshot eyes.
I love the collapsible metal straws on Amazon that come in their own little tube with a cleaning brush and carabiner - just took one on a cruise for the first time and it was fab! Definitely beats a paper straw disintegration your cocktail. Easy to clean and fits in your pocket or clips on your lanyard or bag!
I really like the TSA/make up bag. I love that it folds out flat. I’m always taking my make up bag, putting a washcloth down in the sink, and dumping it all out. Then as I use each piece, I put it back in my bag. But I love that you can see it all right there! I don’t use that much so everything would fit.
Love these tips! Thanks for the video. One thing I’m a little iffy about is the use of portable speakers on cruise ships. Now the small one you have is good for personal use and it’s not too loud. But some people bring the large ones and they can disturb other passengers since they get pretty loud. Thanks again!
I do alternatives when it comes to power and charging. I have one of those unidapt cubes that can connect to EU, UK, Australia, and US power sockets and not only provides a power outlet, but also has four USB ports. Not only do I use them in hotels pre-cruise, but I plug them into the European power outlets in the stateroom. I get an extra socket, plus I can charge my devices from it. However, I also love a portable charging stand, the type that will charge your Apple Watch, iPhone, and Airpods, as well as turn your phone into nightstand mode. I use a travel vest. It's loaded with zippered pockets. I stuff everything into it at airport. Wallet, phone, passport, tickets, chargers, cables, watch. When I go through security, I just send it through the machine and my pockets are empty. I put it on afterwards. I also don't end up with stuff in my pockets on airline trips; all in the vest. I love my Kindle, and I also use a JBL speaker.
Haven’t cruised since 2018! Going on Symphony on January FINALLY! Love watching your videos to make sure I’m prepared and it makes me even more excited.
I got a phone case that has a strap built in to it for less than 5 dollars at 5 below and dollar general Edit: the strap has gummy bear beads and a yellow case. It was so CUTE!! I recommend this for my favorite travel hack.
I love the Lumify eye drops too!! Also there are cases for Kindle with a similar "love handle" option! I have one and it's a game changer!! Thanks for your new travel ideas!!

Great products for travel in this segment. I really like the sleeve for wrapping around an item to attach to a roller piece of luggage. I wish I had that over 10 years ago! I recently bought a USB charged camping light made by Wagan Tech. It's an LED camping light, flashlight and converts to a night light. Additionally, the battery feature in it lets you use it as a portable charger for other electronics. Perfect for in the cabin or off ship too especially if you have overnight port stays in Bermuda and walk around the port area at night.
Forgot to mention that my model has very strong tiny magnets in it so you can stick the device on the metal walls of the cabin. It came in very handy on my last cruise.
Thanks for all the tips , we are seasoned cruisers and travelers , but ,you always amaze us with the goodies . keep up the good work , nice photo of you and linz and emma on the sun princess today ,looking forward to any reviews you can offer all the best ,Les and Angela
I was rewatching this game changer video again and realized that the fully opening TSA bag would also be great to contain my electronics cables and chargers. With the clear zippered cover, it will be easier to see the contents even when closed. The new TSA bag- not just for liquids anymore!
I recently bought the basic Lovehandle and love it. I also have the JBL little speaker and love that too but prefer to take my Sony headphones so I don't disturb my neighbors. Great video.
California Linda shares we have enjoyed your videos for many years. Be sure to enjoy Bluebell and the Kolache Factory (there are several locations in the Houston area). A favorite exploration day include the shops in Rice Village and the Houston downtown tunnel system. The cincha belt you shared on this vlog is a definite game changer, especially for bags with narrow trolley sleeves.
I have the Level 8 Texture "Pickle" and love it. Yes, for Lumify, USB multi-hub, and the 4 cable portable charge. I always take them on our cruises. QUESTION: Does the Lovehandle strap get in the way of a magnetic charging hub? The phone can't directly contact the surface of the charging point.
@@CruiseTipsTV I have Samsung and wonder if the Lovehandle strap will cause a disconnect because of the thickness of the material. Thank you. I'm going to try it!
I loooove those Lumify drops! But man are they expensive!!!! I also have the JBL speaker...I love it!!!! I travel with it and also use it in my bathroom at home! 😊 Great tips as usual! Thanks to you guys!
I never leave home for a trip without Clorox wipes & Lysol can - been cleaning my plane seat and hotel rooms for close to 2 DECADES. My definition on clean isn’t the same as housekeeping’s and we know those planes are gross
love the idea of the love handle pull out 'stand' to use the phone - but wondering if it would also work if you wanted to set up the phone horizontally instead of vertically? Does anyone know?
I would be really afraid to put eyedrops in my eyes esp after those 3 brands that were contaminated making people get infections and even losing their sight. “The CDC has also reported four deaths and 14 cases of vision loss have been linked to non-sterile eye drops.”
I’m looking for reef safe sunscreen. A lady said in a video there was one that actually didn’t feel greasy. I was thinking it was you or Ilana. But I can’t find it.
Here's some ideas from our store- there are reef safe and reef friendly varieties. I'm not sure which one was non sticky, but these get good reviews; amzn.to/49yneo6
i saw you show a very inexpensive light weight back pack for travel in one of you videos and i didnt write down the name of i can you share the info on it please?
Question: I’m going on a cruise in March, I’m wanting to go on another cruise in 2025. Should I buy the cruise now or wait and buy it while I’m on my cruise this coming March? I’ve been told I would be able to get a better price or better incentives? Any suggestions?
For the most part cruises are the least expensive, right when the itinerary is released. So you’re probably at an advantage to book it now. However, I would not choose a nonrefundable deposit under any circumstances. Something in your life could change in the next two years. Hope that helps.
It depends on the policy- a good travel insurance company will allow you to give them a call and talk through what you need in terms of medical coverage, evacuation, etc.
Most insurance from the ship is considerably more expensive for inferior coverage. But do get travel insurance from your travel agent. I know at least one company includes quite a few extras (including pre-existing conditions) if you purchase within 14 days of your cruise deposit.

Yep. I always travel with fabric sheets. I just start with it in my bag.
Rather use a laundry spray on the item

Love all of this! I never go without my travel fan. I have that charger and its nice and lightweight too!
I love it!
I don’t leave my house without putting lumify in. I keep one in our travel bag. It works like a charm especially since I wake up everyday with bloodshot eyes.
Me too! SUCH a game changer! Thanks for watching and happy almost holidays!

Definitely beats a paper straw disintegration your cocktail. Easy to clean and fits in your pocket or clips on your lanyard or bag!
But hate the metallic taste
The phone handle and the TSA bag are certainly game changers. Such great travel essentials! Thanks for sharing.

Exactly!!
I just got the TSA clear bags! Thanks for showing these.
You are so welcome!
We always save up our old underwear That is ready to toss out comma and bring it on trips and then toss it out before we go home
That’s smart!!!!
The airplane pocket is genius!!! Flying to Barcelona next year so this will be a must buy. Thanks for the tip!
It really is!

Luggage handles are very handy. They don’t take up much room and are that added piece of mind in case your suitcase zipper happens to break.
Haven’t cruised since 2018! Going on Symphony on January FINALLY! Love watching your videos to make sure I’m prepared and it makes me even more excited.
How exciting. I am sure you’re going to have a wonderful time on symphony. We really enjoyed harmony and wonder!!!
Pop socket now has a removable option for mag safe cases. You can prop your phone with it as well. I love mine!

Adding all of these to my list for our cruise in June 24.
Whohoo! Happy Cruise Planning!
@@CruiseTipsTV I’m so excited! Cruising really is the best form of vacay.
Costco carries Lumify.
Love all your videos, thank you!!! I've been using Love Handles for at least 3 years. Very secure!! Love them and love that it is a USA company! ❤
I get the super-size Lumify at Costco. Then I don’t run out!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. ❤
You are so welcome
love your tips!!!!!! and product recommendations. look forward to shopping on your amazon shop for some new goodies.
Yay! Thank you!

Yes I think so the case itself is magnetic!

i LOVE the lumify eye drops. they also sell them at costco
Nice!!!!
I want the love handles
I love my kindle for travel, I can down load tons of books and takes up very little room.
🩵
I loooove those Lumify drops! But man are they expensive!!!! I also have the JBL speaker...I love it!!!! I travel with it and also use it in my bathroom at home! 😊 Great tips as usual! Thanks to you guys!
Yes they are! And they run out SO fast!!! 💨
Love everything
I am definitely getting the eyedrops. Does the phone loop work with a MagSafe charging case? Thanks!
Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching!
I never leave home for a trip without Clorox wipes & Lysol can - been cleaning my plane seat and hotel rooms for close to 2 DECADES. My definition on clean isn’t the same as housekeeping’s and we know those planes are gross
They so are! Amen!
Thos specific eye drops are bad for your eyes making the issue worse.
love the idea of the love handle pull out 'stand' to use the phone - but wondering if it would also work if you wanted to set up the phone horizontally instead of vertically? Does anyone know?
Yea!On my phone it also works horizontally!!
I would be really afraid to put eyedrops in my eyes esp after those 3 brands that were contaminated making people get infections and even losing their sight.
“The CDC has also reported four deaths and 14 cases of vision loss have been linked to non-sterile eye drops.”

I see dont see how people pack and take what they need. I cant get what need even in 2 suit cases
Loved your outfit. Where is it from?
Thanks! Amazon- here’s an affiliate link: amzn.to/47wFgq0
When you book a cruise in your buy the insurance from the ship does that include evacuation insurance automatically?
It depends on the policy- a good travel insurance company will allow you to give them a call and talk through what you need in terms of medical coverage, evacuation, etc.
Most insurance from the ship is considerably more expensive for inferior coverage. But do get travel insurance from your travel agent. I know at least one company includes quite a few extras (including pre-existing conditions) if you purchase within 14 days of your cruise deposit.
Why is everything a "Puppy" ...lol
We all have our little speech habits - 😊
Need to verify your cruise company and many and fully banned any Bluetooth speakers and only headset allowed.
I have not heard that. I do not work for a cruise line, however.
Please never EVER leave anything charging in your cabin when you aren't there!!!! Fire starters.....
