10 Things I’d NEVER Put In My Own Cruise Cabin (it keeps getting worse)
A phone left off airplane mode can quietly rack up hundreds of dollars in roaming charges that only appear on your bill a month after you get home, because the ship runs its own cell network that your phone latches onto without any warning. An unpacked suitcase left on the cabin floor is more than an inconvenience — one woman caught her foot on a strap in the dark on her first night and spent the rest of her cruise in a wrist splint. The minibar looks like a welcome gift but functions as a pay-per-item shop, and on some ships lifting a bottle triggers an automatic charge even if you put it back. The video also covers what happens when your phone shows local time in port while the ship departs on ship's time, pool towels that end up charged to your account, and why a cheap battery night light can matter more than anything else you pack.
