DEPARTING THE SHIP

The last night aboard the cruise ship and this couple thanks their waiter for his fine service during their dream vacation.You've sailed to far-off destinations, seen the sights, and made many good memories. In far too short a time, you'll return to home port and, even though you may be tempted to stow away on the next cruise, you'll begin to prepare to go home.

New found friends promise to saty in touch after their cruise vacation ends.

ALL GOOD THINGS MUST
COME TO AN END

Cruise lines have established guidelines to make the disembarkation process as organized and easy as possible. While it may seem that you are being rushed off ship, the staff needs time to clean and prepare for the next group of passengers who will probably arrive in several hours.

One last walk around the cruise ship.One day prior to your final docking, you'll receive color-coded luggage tags which ask for pertinent personal information and your departure airline, flight number, time, etc. Luggage, with the exception of carry-on bags, should be placed outside your cabin door by a designated time on your last night aboard ship. A crew member will transport your luggage to a holding area for unloading once in port where you will retrieve it and carry it through customs.

The final night aboard the cruise ship.TIPS ON TIPS
On your last night aboard ship, you'll receive envelopes to hold tips for service people. With the exception of a few cruise lines who have policies forbidding tipping, most service people depend on tips for their livelihood. Individual ships usually have suggested guidelines regarding tipping amounts for each position but you are always free to deviate from these suggestions depending on the quality of service you've received.
