How To

How to stay safe while aboard a cruise vessel

Before embarking on your cruise ship journey, there are many important things you should know. To avoid getting into trouble, you must know how to behave onboard. Here are some safety tips to help you enjoy your trip.

  1. Be mindful of where you are at all times. On cruise ships, people often congregate, especially at mealtimes. You're often surrounded by people who are eager to talk and eat. It can be easy to get distracted. This should not distract from what you are supposed do. If you see someone doing something dangerous, like smoking or drinking alcohol, tell them politely to stop.
  2. Always keep your room key close to you when you board the ship, and hand over your room key to the person checking you in. You will be able to tell them where you are if they need you. You should also have your passport on you.
  3. Your valuables should be kept out of reach. Most cabins include drawers under the beds. It's a great spot to store money, passports, and credit cards. You should also make sure that nothing of value is visible. Place your bags in the closet.
  4. Keep hydrated. Even though cruise ships are well-stocked with water, it can sometimes be hard to remember how much. You can take advantage of the complimentary bottled water onboard. Keep yourself hydrated. Dehydration can make you tired and cranky, which can lead to fights or other accidents.
  5. Pay attention to the announcements. Announcements are posted everywhere, including on TV screens and public address systems. They include safety procedures as well emergency exits and even weather reports. These announcements are important. These announcements might save your own life.
  6. Always lock the cabin before you leave. No matter how friendly or helpful a crewmember may appear, lock your cabin. Thieves are known to break in through doors that are not locked. If you need to use the restroom, ask a crew member for permission first.
  7. Do not go overboard by yourself. It can take some time for the ship's crew and you to be rescued from the water. Sharks and other marine creatures might be attracted to you while you wait. It's best to wait until help arrives.
  8. Never smoke inside the elevator. These elevators are pressured, which means smoke can quickly build up. You should immediately get off if you feel dizzy, lightheaded or confused. Even though the air outside is fresh, it doesn't mean breathing is safe.
  9. Learn the evacuation procedure. Each year thousands of people are killed by being stuck in elevators. Follow the instructions on screen if you are in an emergency.
  10. Be familiar with the fire drill. Fire drills take place regularly, almost every day. During a drill, everyone on deck has to evacuate. Follow the crew members' directions. Once the drill is over, you can go back to the cabin and lock the doors.
  11. Ask questions before you accept food or drink. Cruisers frequently experience food poisoning. It is common for people to not realize that certain foods can't be eaten onboard ships. Many cruise ships ban raw oysters. If you aren't sure if the food being offered to you is safe, politely decline and choose another meal.
  12. Be careful when using the pool. There have been numerous instances of people accidentally falling into the pools. You should not fall into the pools unless someone spots you. You can also slip and fall off the deck at any moment. Wearing proper footwear is a must and paying attention to the surroundings are important.
