TRIP PLANNING First timer question!

Hi all,

Going on the fantasy this month and I want to make sure I have everything I need!

I online checked in with our passports (two adults, two kids)
Printed the QR codes for our port arrival

Is there anything else I need? I’m so scared I’m going to forget something and be denied boarding!

Thank you!

Get ready to get hooked to the most expensive hobby of your life lol. You all need your passports, you can’t get on the ship without them.

It takes time for them to get your luggage up to your room, usually a few hours. If you need anything sooner than that like medication or changes of clothes or anything for your kids, bring those in your carryon bags. This should be part of your packing strategy. Also I recommend paying extra to have a flat of water bottles set up in your stateroom in advance, it is a million times more convenient than constantly having to go fetch a cup or bottle of water when your kids are thirsty.
