Probably the worst thing you can do? Head off the ship to a port and not pay attention to the time. Late passengers can cost the cruise ship money in port fees. If the ship is really late getting to the next destination, the captain may speed, which can result in rough seas and more sea-sickness. Make sure you know when you need to arrive back on board and stick to it. Your ship may just leave you behind too, which would be a huge hassle!

2. Not washing your hands

You know how quickly illness can spread on cruise ships. There is nothing more disgusting than someone using the bathroom, not washing their hands, and then touching food on a buffet! Always wash your hands after using the bathroom, before eating, and any other time where common sense applies.

3. Ignoring safety drills and rules

4. Leaving your room a mess
