Cruise FAQs

What is the best cruise line for families?+

MSC Cruises is Tony's top recommendation for families, offering kids-sail-free programs, family-friendly dining, and excellent entertainment. Royal Caribbean, Disney Cruise Line, and Norwegian are also great options.

When should I book a cruise to get the best price?+

Book 6–12 months in advance for the best cabin selection and prices. Wave season (January–March) often has the best promotions. Last-minute deals exist but cabin choices are limited.

What should I pack for a cruise?+

Tony's cruise packing guide covers everything from formal night outfits to essential medications. Key items include a lanyard for your cruise card, magnetic hooks for your cabin, and reef-safe sunscreen.

Are cruises good for first-time travelers?+

Cruises are ideal for first-timers — meals, entertainment, and transportation are included. You visit multiple destinations without unpacking and repacking. Tony recommends starting with a 7-night Caribbean cruise.
