Cruise lines board mid-morning, but most flights arrive too late to risk it. The standard advice is to fly in the day before, sleep at the port, and walk onboard rested. A cancelled flight on sail-day means you miss the ship — and the cruise.
Port hotels around Miami, Barcelona, Seattle and Civitavecchia sell out 2-3 months before peak season. Free-cancellation rates on Expedia let you lock in early, then re-shop closer to sail-day if prices drop.
Stateroom, all main meals, kids' clubs, entertainment, most onboard activities. Drinks (alcohol, soda, specialty coffee), specialty restaurants, shore excursions, spa, gratuities, and Wi-Fi are usually extra.
Yes — Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Disney, and NCL run extensive kids' clubs (typically ages 3-17, free), have family-suite cabins, and dedicated pool / waterpark areas. Disney is most kid-focused; the others balance kids and adult spaces.
Almost always yes — even closed-loop Caribbean sailings recommend one. Asia, Europe, Alaska, and transatlantic always require a valid passport with 6+ months remaining beyond your return date.
