(Podcast 281)","description":"Most cruisers walk into their cabin, throw their bags on the bed, and start unpacking. Big mistake. After more than 125 cruises, I\u2019ve learnt \u2013 sometimes the hard way \u2013 that there are a handful of vital checks you should always do before you unpack a single item. In this video I take you inside a real cruise cabin and show you exactly what I personally check the moment I arrive on board. I also explain why it\u2019s absolutely critical to do these checks on embarkation day, when problems are far easier to fix, cabins are still moving around, and engineers are on full standby. Leave it until later in the cruise and you could be stuck with issues that never get resolved. If you want your next cruise to start smoothly \u2013 without nasty surprises, wasted time at Guest Services, or sleepless nights \u2013 these are the 10 cabin checks every cruiser must do before unpacking.
