Fold things super well, then pack them nice and tight in your suitcase (to prevent them from moving), and you'll be surprised how many wrinkles you won't have. 

Please don't give my wife any ideas. I prefer to walk onto the ship.......

For wrinkles, take along Downey Wrinkle Release spray,or you can make your own. Google it for the ingredients.

I saw the same advice when I cruised 11/5/2022, and bought a bottle.  However, I never used it.

Oh ,well !

I would think that use of the dewrinkle product would depend on one of two things- 

A person is not concerned about wearing wrinkled garments 

And/or

The garments are not too wrinkled because careful packing.

I bought it and it didn’t work for me. Maybe it doesn’t work very well on cotton shirts.

My wife gets Wrinkle stuff from Dollar General, off brand.  Seems to work well.  

 

We also pack using those bags that you suck (go ahead, give it your best joke) the air out of.  That also seems to work well.

 

The recipe for home make Wrinkle Release is 1 cup filtered or distilled water, one cup white vinegar, and a few drops of essence oil, your favorite, I guess.  Never tried it.  As much as I like vinegar, I wouldn't want my cloths to smell like it.  BTW, there are several other recipes out there.

Also, are there irons to use onboard? 

Pro tip: Nobody cares if your clothes have some wrinkles. They will be wrinkled by the end of the night. You are are on vacation. Don't worry about it. 

 

That being said, you clearly know what clothes will wrinkle more than others. Don't take those. Simple, resort casual clothes are fine.
