I've been binge watching cruise vids on YT to prep for my first cruise in two months. I have to say, not only are your vids very informative, but they are also hilarious! Thanks
It's a good idea to bring immodium or other similar product because many ships don't sell these products. They don't want people to be able to treat or mask symptoms of norovirus! We got this tip from a friend and we didn't believe it so we went to the shop on our last 2 cruises and sure enough they didn't sell any anti diarrhea medications!
I've been viewing dozens and dozens of cruise videos in preparation for a holiday some time in the next year or two ... IU watched this video, for like 30 seconds and thought "OK .. these two seem like they know what they are talking about!" ... thanks for the great video!!! :)
Boys, just wanted to let you know that I've been enjoying your videos. A group of us are headed out in a week(ish) and as I've been preparing, I've found your videos to be both entertaining and educational. Keep up the good work - and if I see you two fellas on board, I'm buying the first round.
Thanks for the tips! Awesome video. I've learned over time that bring GINGER TABLETS on a cruise really helps seasickness. It's easy to buy on Amazon and worth every penny! Happy sailing! Beth
And I thought I had everything covered being a season traveller, but I have learnt new things today - Thank you both ! How many Disney cruises have you been on? Love the eye sleep mask!
We have been on two Disney cruises. Both on the Disney Magic. Our first cruise was a Transatlantic from Barcelona to Puerto Rico and our second cruise was a Caribbean cruise.
Hi Ben & David, I've been watching a bunch of your videos in an effort to prepare for my first ever cruise on Norwegian Getaway for 9 days in the Baltic. You're videos are very informative and entertaining. I do have one question that I can't seem to find the answer to. I know they have laundry services on this ship but it can get expensive. I read on one website that for latitude members they do have one day where they wash a bag of clothes for $25. Do you know if they offer this service to non-latitude members at all? If they do, what day do they usually do this special on a 9 day cruise?
Hey. When we sailed they did offer this but it was very limited. You could only include T-shirts, shorts, socks and underwear. It was only a press and fold service too - no ironing.
Cruise with Ben & David thanks for the info!!!!! So just to clarify, that deal is offered to non latitude members? And wow that is kind of limited, but thermal long underwear is not included I take it?
No it was offered to everyone. This was a longer 2-week cruise so not sure if that made a difference. You could always throw them in and see if they come back or not lol
Cruise with Ben & David....ah, that makes sense. I’ll try again with customer service and see if they can confirm. The rep yesterday couldn’t give me an answer either way. Thanks again for sharing your insights and experience with crusising! I especially love the tours of the ship you give. Keep rocking fellas!!!!!
We are not sure what the official rule as they vary from line to line but we always take the original packaging or prescription just in case. Some cruise lines require the original packaging if the medication is narcotic for example.
Awesome video and great content! I actually posted my own cruise tips video and I would love to get your feedback. Want more tips for cruising??? Check out one of my latest posts...
Thanks, Justin. Some great tips on your video!. Great idea about taking smaller bills on a cruise. We have had trouble before getting change when in port.
