I've never cruised before, but my in laws are treating us to a cruise around New Zealand. I'm looking forward to it, and I use to work for NOAA on the North Atlantic ship board with the commercial fishing fleet.
I'm not worried about being on the water, rather about the niceties/comforts with a cruise. When I read recommendations on what to bring cruising, I see things like handing door organizers and magnetic hooks. Folks say they use these for drying clothing, organizing rooms, etc. Will I need these onboard the Orion? I understand these are suppose to be a step up from giant cruise lines, but not quite sure what that means. I'm use to hot bunking using coffin bunks on boats where we worked till we dropped and no one had anything more than the bare basics on the boat.
Thank you!
