Cruise dreams but gotta fly there? Here’s my checklist before I ever hit “book”: 1) Hunt for direct flights—delays are a cruise killer. 2) Check if the cruise line offers flight deals (hello, savings and perks). 3) Plan for jet lag so I’m not a zombie at sea. 4) Never, ever fly in the same day the cruise leaves. 5) Always get travel insurance—seriously, don’t skip it. 6) Pad my return flight so I’m not sprinting off the ship. Trust me, these save stress! #Travel #CruiseTips #TravelHacks
