HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR MSC WORLD CRUISE
FOCUS ON THE IMPORTANT THINGS FIRST
• Check your passport
Before departure, each cruiser is responsible for acquiring the specific identity document and any visas required for the cruise and verifying its residual validity; otherwise he or she will not be allowed to embark and no refund will be granted. For specific information on documentation requirements, visit our website https://www.msccruises.com/int/ourcruises/destinations/msc-world-cruise-2027
Alternatively, please refer to the official Xxxxx website or visit cibt.com.
• Apply for visas
Start doing this well in advance as the process can take months. Different countries have different requirements, so read all the paperwork carefully.
• Get vaccinated
Find out which vaccinations are required for each of the countries you’ll be visiting, and talk to your doctor if you have any doubts.
• Plan your medication
If you take any medication, make sure you have enough to last for the entire cruise. Get your doctor to write out any necessary prescriptions. Take copies, and remember to bring your doctor's contact information, just in case.
• Buy travel insurance
Insurance is especially important on a world cruise. Get a cruise-specific policy, and make sure it includes full medical evacuation coverage
• Organise your money
Inform your bank and credit card company of your travel
plans so they won’t freeze your cards when you use them abroad. You won’t need to carry lots of different currencies with you, and you should be able to withdraw money locally, but do bring some cash for emergencies.
PLAN TO STAY IN TOUCH
• Organise communication
Make sure you can call, text or video chat from your mobile devices. That may mean downloading some new apps or changing your cellphone plan.
• Be aware of internet limitations
Please note that satellite internet performance onboard a ship is not like using a high-speed broadband connection ashore. It relies on satellite links and therefore may at times be significantly slower. It may also be interrupted by interference depending on the weather conditions.
• Bring an address book
You may want to send postcards, so bring a list of friends’ and family's postal addresses, in printed form as well as on your phone or computer.
• Don’t forget your home
Give someone a key to your home and ask them to check up regularly while you’re away. You may want to consider getting a house sitter.
• Just in case…
Make sure people at home know how to reach you in the unlikely event of an emergency.
PACK LIKE A PROFESSIONAL
• Don’t go overboard on luggage!
Two large suitcases and a carry-on bag per person should be enough. Study the weather in the areas you'll be visiting and pack appropriately. If you plan on doing a lot of
souvenir shopping, you might want to bring an empty suitcase or expandable bag.
• Don't pack too much formalwear
For women, three long dresses and a few elegant shorter dresses is plenty. For men, a tuxedo, a couple of suits and a jacket should suffice.
• Bring an e-reader or tablet
You can save space in your luggage by bringing your holiday reading in electronic format. But don’t forget, there’s also a large library on board.
• Protect your memories
You don’t want to risk losing your precious holiday memories so take some precautions. Pack a spare battery and charger for your camera, and ideally bring a back-up camera too.
Bring some high-capacity memory cards and make sure you have enough memory on your computer to download all your photos. And take a small waterproof zip-lock bag with you to protect your camera when going ashore.
ENJOY YOUR TIME AT SEA
• Spa treatments
You may want to start thinking about the health and beauty treatments you can enjoy in the ship's sumptous spa. And remember, you can save by booking in advance.
• Sports and fitness
There are lots of ways to stay in shape on board, from working out in the panoramic gym to playing tennis or table tennis. So don't forget to pack some clothes suitable for exercising.
• Enrichment programme
Take the opportunity to absorb new knowledge and learn new skills. Choose from lectures on local history and culture, dance lessons, cookery classes, arts & crafts workshops and much more.
• Plan your shore excursions
Identify any tours you want to take in addition to those already included in your fare. Book early to save money and avoid the disappointment of finding them fully booked. Then do some research on the other ports of call and work out what you might want to do in each one.
• Set yourself a goal
During days at sea you'll have plenty of free time to spend as you please, so why not use some of it to achieve something special? You could learn a language, knit a sweater or write a novel!
