When do you unpack for a 7 night or longer cruise?

a) as soon as the luggage gets to your cabin

b) before dinner first night

c) after dinner or late first night

d) first full day of cruising.

e) we don't unpack, we work out of suitcases.

I always unpack as soon as possible to let the wrinkles fall out of our clothes but hate wasting time that first day. Just kinda curious.

Typically the first night before we go to bed or the following morning. We usually are out and about checking out the boat and seeing who is performing where the first night. We bring the wrinkle remover spray and just use that as needed for the bad stuff.

a) as soon as

As soon as the bags arrive, takes all of 10 mins.

We do it as soon as possible. We grab a beverage of choice and just dig in. It really doesn't take that long. I do stack things in the suitcase in piles, so it's easy to grab a pile of Tshirts and shove in a drawer. It does take a bit of time to hang up blouses, etc. But I really think it only takes about 15 minutes, and then it's DONE and time to party.

As soon as I can to get it over with.

As soon as possible, hopefully before muster if luggage delivery permits.

Like most other responders, as soon as! We usually arrive on ship by lunchtime and as soon as the announcement is made, we go to room, unpack and enjoy the rest of our trip until we have to sadly repack. Don't empty it so quickly once we are home!!

As soon as it arrives for us too.

As soon as I get in my room. I bring my own bags on, as I can't stand waiting for luggage delivery. I want to get settled and relax.

You bring everything carry on?? Couldn't handle that! I thought luggage had to go through security looking for contraband!?

As soon as my bags arrive. I use packing cubes, so just pull them out of the suitcase and put them in the drawers/shelves. Only hang my pants, jacket , since everything else I take is non wrinkle.

For all lengths of cruises as soon as our luggage gets to our room which lately has been before 2. That way, everything is put away before muster and we can be on vacation immediately.

Ditto..why wait? It doesn't take but a few minutes!

As soon as we receive it in the cabin...takes all of 10 minutes and gets the big bulky suitcases out of the way:D

with a cocktail.

Carnival offers FTTF (priority luggage) so we got our bags midday after we had discovered the ship and had lunch we then unpacked and still had a full 2 hours before muster and sail away at 4pm.

I liked getting unpacked and enjoying the first night.

e) we don't unpack, we work out of suitcases-mostly.

Everything including makeup and bathroom articles are in their own cases so I do pull those out. Slacks and formals are hung, but most everything else, I leave in the suitcase-not stacked-but "filed" standing in rows in plastic baggies that I can easily see and pull out as needed. Worn items may then go in the closet if I need to have them for another day. Makes it so much easier to leave on the seventh day.

It does not take long as I am nearly always a carry-on person.

I've often been travelling for a week or two before hand so its great to bring some order to the chaos that is my suitcase.

And just to brag - I'm in Slovakia, working my way through a few European countries to my way Legend in 7 days. yahhh for me!!!!:D And yes my suitcase is already in chaos.

ASAP. I pack for a month, but I can unpack in 10 minutes. Our hanging stuff is already on hangers, so just take it out and it goes right to the closet. I'm not neat, I just fly through it. DH hands me stuff and I stow it. We work as a team. Faster to the alcohol and fun!! I'm so excited, the adrenaline makes it a snap. I don't usually put things away in the bathroom, just get the baggies out of the suitcases and throw them in there. I put things away neatly after sailaway.

We unpack as soon as possible, once and done with it.
