There is always that little bit of worry in my mind that the bags won't make it, so once I see them come down the carousel I can finally get into vacation mode! Link to post Share on other sites

We always have a carry-on with a change of clothes. Worst case scenario, we buy more clothes. At least we're on vacation! 😀 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tapi Posted October 8, 2019 #10 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I want to say that it’s when I start planning, but when it really hits me is when I get that first glimpse of the ship from the car/shuttle as we are driving to the port. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

We always have a pre night hotel stay in the Airport before we fly and this is part of our trip, but alas, like others say, I'm not 100% settled till I have ALL our bags in the pre cruise hotel! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. This is when it becomes REAL. We typically drive (actually have a car service drive us) to the port. So no flights, no luggage worries. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Once I get onboard I feel Ive made it and I can relax. Almost the same for me. Once I'm on the gangway the nervousness finally subsides and the excitement builds. Up until then I'm pretty bossy and need things done the way I expect. 13 minutes ago, mcgore83 said: After the muster (mustard) drill. Then we are on island time! You just triggered my dad joke reflex. On our first cruise I was so seriously calling it the mustard drill I had my wife thinking they were handing out packets of it when we walked in the door. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
