Fellow Canadian here! I found you a couple of days ago and I have been watching your channel non stop. We are cruising with Celebrity in December and you have provided a wealth of information, tips, and super recommendations. I look forward to more! Very informative and enjoyable!

Air tags in our checked luggage has given us such peace of mind! We will never travel without them!

I take a small co trainer of baby powder. When you are at the beach, you sprinkle this on your feet and all the sand falls off. It's great if you don't have a foot wash nearby. Just sprinkle, rub off and you can put on your shoes with no sand. Any type of powder should work.

We bought that large hanging toiletries bag for our last cruise. When it arrived my husband was SURE it wasn't big enough but it held nearly everything our old (OLD) bag held and it was much more organized. I highly recommend it.

I love bringing a collapsible drink caddy on our cruises! Makes it super easy to bring drinks back to the room, or when we are at the beach! It’s a simple thing but I never travel without it on a cruise.

Here’s one: I pack a collapsible foot bath for the shower for washing a few bits of laundry, Italian grape crushing style!

In between cruises, I have the motion sensor light magnetically attached to the side of my spare fridge in the garage. Don't have to fumble for the light switch when entering the garage in the evening. Battery lasts a long time. Also my for travel magnet hooks do double duty in the kitchen affixed to the side of the fridge to hang oven mitts.

For longer cruises i use a second hanging toiletry bag as a full first aid kit. It can hang, store in the closet or even under the bed in my suitcase until needed.

We bring the motion sensor night light on every cruise and attach it to the ceiling near the bathroom but facing the main door (so as not to disturb anyone sleeping). I place a piece of card stock (junk paper in the cabin) between the ceiling and the extremely strong magnet. Getting that magnet to unlatch from the ceiling is time-consuming.

I love the grey passport holder she showed. Holds 4 passports, the entire family, and I just stick an airtag in one of the pockets. Recently bought the silicone bottle covers, looking forward to trying them.

Use that fan on a hook in the bathroom, blowing air on the clothing you've hung up to dry. First time I tried drying a couple items, it took days. Adding the fan meant stuff dried overnight! I even plugged the fan into a power bank so it ran longer.

I never really though I would need air tags (or tiles) but on our last cruise we found one of our suitcases in front of another cabin. We were lucky cause it was close but I will be buying them for our next in case next time it isn't.

[dorothywillis]

We have had hanging toiletry bags for years and they are great!

[sherylpolster]

I've had the large hanging toiletry bag for a couple of years now. I use it just for all of my makeup, skincare, hair products, and basic toiletries. They are all in one place. It's so perfect!

[raisafrancisco]

This year I took the clothesline to my European cruise. It was fantastic! Between the pre and post-cruise hotels and the 9-day cruise, it was a 13 day trip, so we needed to optimize the outfits and wash some clothes to re-use them. It worked really well with the magnetic hooks and also with the stoppers after each clothespin that come with the line. These stoppers are adjustable and keep the clothes in place on the line avoiding them to get all together in the center. I would never leave this clothesline at home when cruising. We hung the clothes in the shower first, and when they were not dripping, we hung them on the line. It was perfect.

We used the air tags to see when our luggage had been both brought on board and delivered to our cabin. Loved using it that way!

[jamess]

Many cruises ago I picked up a wall hanger with 10 pockets that I hang near the door on magnets. Sort of a smaller version o a shoe rack that does not take up as much space on the wall or in the luggage. It is great for sunglasses cards etc etc It also has a couple of hooks for our hats and lanyards..

[gingerhart]

I love all your tips. We loved the silicone covers and light.

[Rnkristin]

I had all of the cruise cabin things (alarm clock, night light, clothesline, luggage tags with the metal rings) for my family of 6 (2 cabins) tucked into one compact bag so I could set up the rooms on embarkation. TSA did NOT like the look of that bag. Bunches of metal loops and wires and batteries all crammed together. I spread out the items between the bags now. 😳

[alisablack]

I absolutely LOVE that weekender bag! I used the bottom space to hold a 12-pack of Diet Dr. Pepper cans since Princess only carries Coke products (as far as soda goes). It was genius!
